The PDCS is buggy. IF you start clicking buttons a bit to fast, you are guaranteed to get a CTD (fatal error). The button clicking must be slow and precise to avoid that, and sometimes (too many in fact) I forget. So it's better left alone. Fix that bug AND have the PDCS actually control the EPR bugs and I would use it. If I'm not in a mood for realism, I don't fly realistically. I just jump in and fly from here to there.

I really should buy Ideal Flight, I'm getting very short on ideas of where to fly from and to. :-/
