Great video, thanks. A) What helped me as well was to raise or lower my seat so that when I look straight ahead I'm even with the Horizon straight ahead. C) in setting choose Camera then adjust Zoom to in-between 80-90. Default is 50 & that is not realistic. Zoom is "Field of View". One TV/monitor should be a 45 degree field of view. 80 on zoom will get you there. Once you best to zoom 80 then move back in seat a bit & save that a default or custom view.
A little advice for anyone not wanted to keep spawning outside the cockpit (after the custom views are set). Set the custom view for the cockpit BEFORE you alter the cfg file. Then do as the video instructs (just leave out the cockpit view as it’s already been set now). Then once completed, changed the cfg file back to normal. Next time you start the sim you’ll spawn in the cockpit and still have those amazing window views saved.
I suggest if you gonna do it this way go through your Num. Keys and Ctr. And clear al current imputs before reassigning them. Do this by, Search By Imput, and delete everything to those keys first. It'll be much much easier.
Simple my hairy ass. I reset it to default but only some of the controls work. Others only work only once or twice then stop. Reset everything to default again and its the same. This his sim is wonky as hell. I spend more time trying to make it work then actually flying. Therein lies the real object of the game; its a simulator about fixing a broken flight simulator. They should call it Monotonous Sim Fixer Simulator
I have this panel and the Honeycomb bravo throttle (with AP). This is way easier and better to use than the Bravo. I don't think I ever got the AP to work with the Bravo throttle, plus the throttle levers get in the way.
Might be “really simple” but its extremely frustrating when I set everything up and it reassigns for no apparent reason. So don’t assume its user error. Ive setup control settings for a320, Longitude, Kodiak, Cessna 172, and a couple others. So to say the least I know the process, but after a day or two of things working fairly well, all of a sudden, after making a 1 or 2 hours a320 flight the throttle all of a sudden controls the ailerons and I crash on landing. Ive reset complete control assignments, deleted the sim and reinstalled, tried another controller. Nothing so far has truly resolved this issue.
Hi Geeks, thanks for this precious video that cleared up my doubt. Does Multipanel also work without Spad Next? YESS Have you also tried some other aircraft like A320, B737? Are the commands working? Grazie for your time
Your explanation is quite good and simple. What I don't know is why it does not work in my system. I do exactly all your suggested steps and clean any duplicate key but in the game nothing happens. You set you view, click ctrl + the num to store it and when you go back to the original position and click the num where the view is stored, nothing? What may be happening, any clue? One thing, I have multiple monitors setup (3)...
Thanks for this very helpful video. I am also an X-Plane user and need to configure my MSFS camera presets the same. I will now go and follow these instructions.
uhm - I had expected that you might use the hat switch on your yoke. But I come from FSX, which was so easy to set up - vs.MS2020 that is a nightmare out of hell concerning the setup for views.
What I found particularly handy with XP11 was that when I pushed the same button a second time, the camera returned to the previous view. In msfs2020 the camera always goes back to the base view. For me it was perfect and I miss it a lot. In summary: I am in left view and I click the throttle view button. I push back the throttle view button a second time and go back to left window view. It worked in XP11 for customer view 0 to 9...
Hi I'm on xbox series X Using normal controller.. I've just had a issue where it would not let me decrease my thrust using the B button or manually This happend during the landing process of a 4hr flight 🤬🤬🤬 Luckily I was able to land it Still didn't regain control over the thrust So I had to keep turning off the engine And turning it back on As it automatically kept on putting my thrust to 98% on both engines 😡😡 Does anyone know how to fix this please ?
Had the lagging/sticking issue with control surfaces. Remove elevator up/down inputs in the set up same with rudder use only the Axis for control works great!
As a sim-pilot with 1000s of X-Plane hours, I found I just couldn't use MSFS due to camera clumsiness... My disappointment of X-Plane 12's dark cockpits, etc. forced me to give MS another try and THIS VIDEO has made all the difference. THANK YOU !!!
Thank for this. Any idea how you can reset cockpit view but keep any applied zoom or translation? I can't figure it out. Best I have is I set a custom view but for some reason I need to press it twice to get me back to my saved view?! The first press takes me to some strange angle. So frustrating!
Thanks so much! What a great and straight video. A well deserved Thumbs Up and happy to be your newest subscriber. Please keep up with your great job helping us.
Thank you very much for your help with the view settings. This just what I have been looking for. I have been flying XP11 but I now also own MSFS. Right! Time to get things set up 🤩✈️
