Custom Wing Views for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 | Save any view you want | Easy Tutorial 

I searched and searched and gave up on this. Then just by chance was reading up on another board where where someone asked for this and a person linked your video. What a find! Thanks a lot!

This is the best custom wing views tutorial I've seen. Great video!!

I honestly need friends like you. Just like casually do a wing view tutorial and share it on RU-vid...oh man the blessings the universe will bring your way....awesome share. Thanks a million

YEESS, lol since i dont have a PC i just spend my day doing schoolwork and watching you.

Thanks for taking the time to do this XP. A big help to me and numerous others I am sure.

just came across your video, and it is an absolutely fantastic help, playing with views and all sorts of cameras was always tricky for me, I can't say how much stress is saved by these quickviews, thank you!

YESSSS!! Finally a good tutorial! Thank you very much Captain! Have a good day

Definitely helped! Thanks for taking the time to make this. Greatly appreciated.

Great tutorial, took a bit more time since the A32NX is now its separate aircraft in-game, but everything is basically smooth after that, many thanks!

Thank You! You just solved my question about wing views. Thank you for being so thorough, it was so pleasant to hear and watch your tutorial as if you were here in person to show me how to do it. I subscribed!

Brotha this was an excellent tutorial. precise, and in detail with explanation. Everyone other video on youtube just rifles through the steps! Thank You for sharing and taking time to develop and post how to videos!

7 months later and I still used this, thank you so much, instant sub

Just what I have been looking to set up, thanks for the tutorial I will set this up tonight 👍

Thanks XP! Ive been meaning to get wing views for a while now!!!

Very helpful and so easy! As an extra precaution, since it's a lot of work to save views in any number of planes, it's a good idea to copy the saved camera files on a jump drive or on the cloud just in case you'll ever need to reinstall the sim software on a new computer set up or if something corrupts.

we just need a camera plugin like x camera... man that would make life easy :D

FINALLY! Someone explains it simply and straight forward. Cheers fella! 👍

Thank you so much! This was very helpful! Please do more stuff like this. I would like to see where to get and how to install the liveries.

Thanks for the video, XP. Much appreciated!

Great video! My complements to you on your style of delivery and instruction. This one is saved as a favorite. Thanks

That helped me ALOT! Doing some views for the new PMDG DC-6. Thanks so much man!

XP brother great tutorial, watched once was able to easily set my custom views I was looking for these thank you man!

You're the man XP! Thanks a bunch!

Hey I already got the Xplane camera setup from another youtuber, but this is good because can also go out the acf

Thanks so much..Hopefully someone’s working on a custom view add-on that will be even easier.. Going to try your way..Awsome

Thanks XP! Been enjoying the channel alot! Very useful tutorial. Thanks again!

Thanks, Your tutorial is clear as crystal.

Working awesome ! Really good tuto, THX XP !

Awesome, thank you for making this tutorial!

Thanks man, it was so helpful, i saved all my views by cntrl alt number and load them by alt number, it was too much, i didnt know we could just change them and load them by just number pad, appreciate it.

Damn I needed this tutorial! Amazing video

Excellent tutorial. You're great dude!!! Crystal clear explanations......simple as that. Congrats and keep up the good work!!!!!!

Hey XP, happy new year. Thanks for the tutorial. Got this sim on day of release but couldnt get used to all the keyboard functions for camera views. Kept going back to X-Plane 11 where camera view set up felt more intuative, but having followed your instructions, it all now seemless. Now i need to sort out excessive jerking when using my Thrustmaster TPR Pendular Rudder Pedals. It doesnt matter what i change in sensitivity settings, Pedals react exactly the same every time in the sim taking the joy out of the sim. They work perfectly in X-Plane 11. Keep up the good work.

I'm very happy about how you explained it so well and also how you showed the file location!

Thank you. I´ve seen many explanations for this. Yours is much easy

Great assistance and thanks very much for this! Having the ability to load aircraft without having to close down the sim will probably be a useful tip also. Just to say that you need to have set up at least one customer view before it generates the needed line with the axis to edit in the camera.cfg file - in fact in some aircraft if you don't have a customer view set then no camera.cfg file will be there at all

One of the best explanations!!! Left a like.

Very useful, thanks. MSFS does seem a backward step in some areas such as cameras and controller config.

Bro thanks a million for your great tutorial the best one i came across i was trying to customize the views in the pmdg with no luck for weeks really a torture until i came across here in your channel, Finally i i did it thanks for your great tutorialkeep the good work, by the way i subscribe to your channel, thanks again bro😍!

This is the reason I continue to play msfs2020, I get to really feel like i'm in a plane and get to go anywhere I want on the plane while it's flying!

first tutorial that actually helped

Thanks for doing this tutorial, big help

Bro this helped a lot, thank you definitely leaving a like

For those of you who have Steam and can't find the files and looking for a solution, set up a view first with a bogus view then search for C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft Flight Simulator\SimObjects\Airplanes, if the only thing you see is state, then you haven't done this and this is why make sure you set up your view first so in the file it updates with your set number then you can set up your real view instead of the one in the cockpit I hope this helps.

good stuff @XP, thank you!!

Thanks for this video I will have to check this out tomorrow

Bro, mad props....thanks so much, fantastic information

New to msfs so pleased to find your tutorial. Brilliant instructions. I am all setup thank you. I have subscribed so will check out your other posts. Again many thanks

Lovely tutorial, the XP shirt is a nice cherry on top! :-)

soooo clear, thanks man for real

This is brilliant! Thanks so much :)

Brilliant! Thanks. But for some reason on my system the file to modify isn't in "Local" but in "Roaming". Either way it works.

Many thanks for this. Excellent tutorial. Best regards ...

The people get what they want. At last. Big up XP.

XP thank you so much

Awesome! Thanks

XP, first of all, this was a great video. Very, very helpful and I've used your technique on a number of aircraft. The only one that gave me a problem was the Asobo 787. Here's the issue: I can save all of the custom views and when I load the plane, they all work great. Here's the problem: If I save ANY custom views, doing so completely fouls up my autopilot LNAV functionality. As soon as I activate LNAV, my bank angle becomes close to 90% and I fly in circles. For the life of me, I can't figure out the connection between the two. I've retested this 3 times. If I delete the config file altogether, LNAV works fine. If I save even one custom view, I lose control over LNAV. In fact, in one flight, I engaged LNAV without any configured custom views. Worked great. Then, I save just one custom view and the LNAV went haywire. Any suggestions? It's the only Asobo airliner where I have had this problem. However, I have not flight tested all of the airliners yet. It works fine with the A320 Neo and the 747. IDK about the CRJ's. Thanks in advance for any assistance.

my man! ty

Thank you for a great video. Helped out a great deal. My problem is finding the correct command for moving around outside or inside as you do. You have mentioned a few times about you have programmed your , and . but to what command? Is it Slew something or Translate something? When I use the mouse it only moves so far backwards or forwards. Your advice would be greatly appreciated. I have done 1 to 6 but I just cant get to the back of the plane.

Legend. Thanks XP!!!

XP Very informative well done. Now I will have take the time to do this. One question though how do I get different liveries for my aircraft?

Thanks man!

I don’t have a “Translate Cockpit View Up” and “Translate Cockpit View Down” option that I can assign a key command to, just left, right, forward, and back. Which option is up and down? EDIT: Nevermind, figured it out. I used comma and period for these and MSFS2020 didn’t like that and made them “Lockable” whatever that means. Changed these to Up and Down arrow and made comma and period forward and backward and all worked fine. By the way, there is a camera.cfg in the Community Folder or wherever you keep those files. Don’t modify that one as it gets written over when the FBW updates. Learned that the hard way.

Thank you from munich !

Thank you buddy!

absolutely brilliant....

XP, thanks for the videos! Do you need to resave your original camera.cfg file after saving your wing views? Thanks

Nice and interesting work, man

Thank you sir!

This was sooo helpful, thank you! How did you move forward/backward once you were outside the cockpit? That's what I can't figure out! lol

Thanks so much for that great video. What would we do flying without wing views.

Figured out my mistake, working now.

Great Tutorial and very helpful. I have the steam version so the file system is a bit different but this video helped regardless. Thanks!

Biggup yourself one time XP. Reeeeewind!

Hey @XP72 ! Can we add more combinations of views apart from the basic NUM 1-9? Like Shift+NUM1 and so on? Or are we just limited to those 9 views which we can save and load from settings? Appreciate the video, loved it ; )

Nice one XP🤘🏻

Hi, thanks for a brilliant tutorial. I have set up my external views and mapped them to my number pad. I have noticed that autopilot does not work now. Is that something I have done wrong?

Next update... remove your mods from your community folder first ... thank you very much XP keep up the good work

Thanks ! Excellent video, I’m gonna try it. If you could please make the same video for the 787 and 747 aircrafts, this would be fantastic. Thanks

Good stuff bro very good stuff

Thanks a lot man, you're awesome! I have one problem though - so it takes me outside the plane and I hold down (right shift and up arrow) to move forward in the direction I'm facing, before then clicking right Ctrl and no. To save Like you say. However, as soon as I let go of shift - the camera flicks back to cockpit and I have to try and get back to where I was with the shift and up to save it... Any ideas?

Great vid! Is there a way to set up a tower view live as opposed to in replay?

Bless up!
