And, if you inplement Newtonian flightmodel, don't make it too realistic.
I played the I-War 2 Demo and thats too realistic to be fun. Sad, because its a good game .
You should easily fly like in the TV. They used the thrusters only for rolling and "spezial manouvers" if im remembering right. And of course for slowing down .

WuHOOOOOOOOOOOO
Even the thing with the vertical and horizontal thrusters?
If yes (and you find the time to do it) than I suggest to lay them on the Num-Pad.
But don't make the flight model unless the rest of the TBP is finished please. Even with the "normal" flightmodel TBP is GREEEAAAATTTTT!!!!!

Does anyone make a full newtonian joystick?

Something like this would be cool:

Two sticks,

left stick:

directional movement. joystick jeft-right, accell left or right; foward-back, accel foward back; raise-lower, accell up or down.

Right stick:

yaw pitch roll. twist left-right, yaw left right; foward-back, pitch foward back; left-right, roll left right.

This would be a great configuration for a full Newtonian game.
