Actually you can disable the auto-center, but it seems that it works only with keyboard control. I have the auto-center disabled for pitch control only. similar to flaming cliffs 2. to disable it go to >C:\Users\[User]\Saved Games\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2 Vietnam\Controls\Default.INI and find SelfCenterRate under PITCH_CONTROL and set it from 1 to 0. I wouldnt recommand disabling it for Roll and Yaw. its not as good as flying with the mouse but it makes things a little easier.
