Using 5.1+XWAHook Auto updater+latest ddraw. Stick is a Virpil Constellation Alpha.

I end up getting this when trying to point my stick at targets:

Notice how it jumps around and jitters including the whole cockpit. This happens if I put *any* slightly input on the joystick.

"Allow small movements" in joystick configuration either check or not doesn't change this behavior.

Found out why. BLUF: The game seems to have floating point precision errors for large resolutions and the reticle/euler angles are not quite sure where it needs to be so it bounces around.

It seems the game does not like anything above 1080p. I was mostly experiencing this launching the game on my 1440p monitor (monitor 1) and moving it to my 4k monitor (monitor 2) since the game always launches on monitor 1. It could be mostly because of the game starting in 1440p then switching but I notice it just a super tiny bit on my 1440p as well but certainly still playable there.
