This only happens when flying slower than 380-390km/h.
Don't know if it's intended, on a sidenote the A-164 has a mass of 19k+ (from the getmass command, no idea to what weight that really translates) and way heavier than the buzzard with 6k mass and the neophron with 7k mass so this could aswell be an issue.

those approximate to the actual kg weights of the equivalent aircrafts: A-164=A-10 - 20000kg CAS, buzzard=L-159 - 8000kg

Confirmed, this makes the jet pretty much useless for strafing runs as you can't hit anything.

for me, all the jets pitches down, perhaps a bug in every jet...

Jet pitches down no matter what, even at 700 km/h the thing wants to nose dive. Are you guys using flight sticks too or is this for everyone?

yes planes pitches down, but in real life you use the trim to compensate...in a3 there is no trim...

Largos, I have the same issue using the mouse and keyboard.

I too have the same thing, I have logged a error before seeing this one "0018002"

When you're using the 30mm, you can't even aim properly. It takes away the fun of strafing.

Hello guys,

Wipeout now keepts its pitch even in 330 kph. Should be on current Steam stable.

Thank you.
