The latest C-130J comes with a big cockpit and there are many switches scattering around the plane, with the current cockpit camera key binds in DCS how are we suppose to navigate around the big plane? I mean it's okay to use trackir in a hornet cockpit, but in C-130J we need axis movement control for cameras, please.

Is this a joke? That is not the DCS-130J. Its not even DCS, the game.

Pretty sure the video is to show how OP uses camera controls in MSFS and is wanting that in DCS.

I'm not sure. 

Regardless, he/anyone can set up any of those things in the C130 cockpit. WASD are not default binds, but you could set that yourself, if you wanted. They are, by contrast, default binds in the loadmaster station.

I own all DCS modules and I know it's DCS limitation that you can't use joystick to control your camera movements.

but classic DCS button camera control just doesn't work in large aircraft like CH-47D and C-130J. Without axis control, you need to bind fast speed view controls (6D control = 6 buttons) and normal speed view controls (6 more buttons) to control your camera, instead of using wasd (I mean the wasd control logic, not the keybinds) /joystick as in modern games.

and that force you to use 12345 to switch to different stations, other than just fly the camera around the 3D plane.

Here's a DCS video for comparison, you can only go one direction with button control (5 way hat) and no speed/precision control like with axis. 

And you can see the ASC C-130J is far better than BB C-130J in simulation just by comparing the two 1 min videos.

I've spent the better part of 2-3 hours over the last two days watching and reading tutorials on how to do this properly using the snap views and then creating custom view angles, but i'm not having the same results work as I want it to like so in MSFS. All I want to be able to do is save custom views, 0-9, using just NUM 0-9, and not need to go through all the BS of using RALT+NUM0 and RCTRL+ NUM0. 

Overly complex with underperforming results.
