Default A real life pilot's first sim experience

Yes, I use MSFS as an occasional substitute for my Cherokee 180 when I
can't fly for real. I use the default Cessna 172, it's not bad,
except that no matter how I adjust the sensitivity settings, the
rudder is WAY too sensitive compared to my Cherokee or 172s that I've
flown. Is there anything else to try?


Try the RealAir 172. It's freeware, and is supposed to be about as close to
realistic dynamics as is possible with the program. I have it and fly it
often. I can't fly a real 172, so I can't say if it's real or not, but
certainly seems better than the default.
