when setting your Heading Hold, dont just jump to the heading that you are going to end up at. take it slow on the dial and your turns will become more elongated.
if you are at heading 360, and you want to end up on 090, dont just crank the Heading Hold around to 090. (your plane will end up doing the 30-40* bank and you dont want that). Instead, tell it to go to 020, wait till you are about 1/2 way through that turn then change it to 040, .. 060, ..080, 090. This will cause your plane to not bank so hard through the turns. yeah you have to mind the dial A LOT more, but if you want "lazy turns" this may be 1 way to achieve what you want without having to go digging through .CFG files just to change 1 line. .. What will you do in the future if you want to go back to the 30-40* bank so that you can zip through downtown Dallas between the buildings??? you have to change the .CFG back... or, just crank it on the Heading Hold.
