A Newbie Keystroke Question

[PDX Flyer 111]

I have been away from Flight Simulator for 5 years. Sorry for this very basic question.

 

When in Virtual cockpit mode, I can use the hat on my flightstick to look around. What keystroke do I use to move my view looking directly forward? I think there used to be something like this in FS 2004?

 

Thank You

(+) and (-) - next to backspace work for me to zoom in and out in virtual cockpit.

 

Hope this helps.

 

Edit: Just realized you are talking about "moving" not "zooming."

 

I have a hat switch on my yoke assigned for this. But, I believe the shortcut is shift+enter and shift+backspace to move forward and back. Sorry, I'm not by my FSX pc at the moment.

I have set this particular view to another key, but in your Settings - Controls, under Views, the keystroke would be next to Look Forward (3D Cockpit). Hope this is what you are referring to.

usually pressing space bar returns me to centre, in fsx

Or try holding CTRL and hitting SPACE
