yeah, freedom 90 is very difficult to control. try setting her at a speed a little lower than full, and turn off precision steering so it sets back to zero instantly. that should make it a bit easier to control.

Not to sound cliched, but what a long, strange, trip it's been.

Try setting the lift-controls a bit lower (between 500-550 rpm). It makes her a lot easier to handle..
I guess 'full lift' (600 rpm) is for departure/landing and for full speed straight ahead, not for turning ;)

OK I took Freedom 90 out of Calais in MP on the thrusters alone (15 knots on thrusters seems a bit high though) I stuck full power into the main props and got her shooting round at over 2500RPM...  :-\
