Mouse Aim Flight Redux

Point your mouse where you want to go, and your plane follows. Smooth, easy flying for anything you build.

Mouse Aim Flight Redux handles the stick for you. It reads each craft's torque and inertia, so it adapts to whatever you bring to the runway: it turns hard without overshooting, stays inside G and angle of attack limits, and never needs trimming.

Controls

• Y turns mouse aim on and off.
• O switches flight mode while mouse aim is on. Each game starts in Normal.
• Hold the right mouse button to look around. The aim stays put until you let go.
• Your keyboard still works. Press pitch or yaw to take over, and let go to hand control back.
• Terrain avoidance, switched on in the settings, pulls up at the last moment if you're about to fly into the ground or a mountain, then hands back. It stays out of the way with the gear down.
• "Camera Follows Aim" in the settings swings the camera round behind your aim, War Thunder style.
• The toolbar button opens the settings: hotkeys, sensitivity, axis inversion, the on-screen markers, terrain avoidance and the camera.

Flight modes

Normal --> everyday flying

Aggressive --> hard turns for dogfights and aerobatics

Unlimited --> no G limit, turning as hard as the wings allow. With G-force limits on in the difficulty settings, pilots can black out and parts can break

Cruise --> gentle turns and shallow banks

The modes live in a plain config file. Tweak them, add your own, or patch them with ModuleManager, then reload them from the settings window without restarting the game. The tuning overlay shows what the controller is doing while you fly.

Works with

Stock aerodynamics and Ferram Aerospace Research. In stock, control surfaces move faster while mouse aim is on and go back to normal when you switch it off.

SAS and Atmosphere Autopilot switch off while mouse aim is on, and come back afterwards. To fly with Atmosphere Autopilot's fly-by-wire under mouse aim, untick "Keep Atmosphere Autopilot Off" in the settings.

Installation

Place the GameData folder inside your Kerbal Space Program folder. Remove any older version first, including the original Mouse Aim Flight.
