dburne Posted May 19, 2012 Posted May 19, 2012 Hey gang, Me the newb again! All is setup and I have begun the training missions, currently working on the HOTAS training segment. My Track IR5 is also working great in this sim, but I do have a question - having the Track IR, I assigned my trim functions to the POV hat , since I would not be using it for panning around. However, I see that when viewing externally in the F2 view, that view is locked on the aircraft, kind of close and a little below it - is there not a way to pan the view around in this mode, using Track IR?

FBDon Posted May 19, 2012 Posted May 19, 2012 Np I've ben baby stepped through about a dozen things the last few times online over this week alone so happy to pass on some things to others.
dburne Posted May 19, 2012 Author Posted May 19, 2012 Thanks I really appreciate it - I am sure there will be more to come as I start getting more into it, unfortunately won't be able to next week at all.

FreeFall Posted May 19, 2012 Posted May 19, 2012 Not sure about the trackir5 but external view would be with the mouse and zoom with mouse wheel Yes. Don't know if TrackIR can be used with external view. Anyway, when you have activated the external view with F2, you can use these commands as well: RAlt + F2 (= AltGr + F2): Toggle camera position LAlt + F2 (= Alt + F2): Toggle local camera control Now you can move the cam position by moving your mouse. Just repeat the command (toggle) to get back to normal external view. Also: LCtrl + F2: View own aircraft
