A-Wing hack or bug in Walker Assault?

I had the following occur in two different Walker Assault matches today (11/24/15 around 6:00-10:30pm EST) and I was flying A-wings, but the issue could affect other crafts or gameplays. 

I spawned and the a-wing was severely restricted in maneuverability and guns fired awfully slow.  I could slowly turn by 10-15* and same thing with Y-axis (I couldn't do any vertical loops).  I couldn't aim to the ground since the reticule would be barely below the horizon and couldn't get the craft in a steep enough decline.  Dogfighting was super difficult as well. 

It wasn't lag as I was playing fine as a trooper, in an AT-ST and also in my first match I was on the air for a bit and was flying fine - I had respawned a couple of times and it was normal.  The third time that's when the craft was a sitting duck.  I was also in a second match and got A-wings twice - both those times I was a sitting duck as well from the get go. 

Is this a bug or could this be hack?  Has anybody else experienced this issue?

    I'm on PC and using a mouse.  But it's not a defective controller on my end as it was working perfectly fine before and after the a-wing incidents.  While I was having flight issues I also used W/S/A/D and arrow keys to see if it was my mouse having issues but the same thing applied.

    It just happened again around 11:51AM EST on 11/26/15.  I was playing walker assault and I was on my 3rd or 4th match.  I have been flying fine before with imperials and now was playing rebels and jumped in an a-wing.  It played fine the first couple of times until I spawned again and then same the thing resulted. 

    One thing peculiar that I forgot to mention in my original post is that the powerups change when this issue occurs.  As far as I've noticed the standard load should be shield and missile.  But when the bug kicks in, it changes to speed boost and jammer.  I hope this helps in identifying the issue.
