External views missing

So far despite the unfinished beta we all payed for, the sim is actually pretty good even with it's issues. I'm enjoying it. The flight dynamics seem realistic in the GA aircraft and the scenery is amazing. However on the external views... There is no option to transit down or up. I found the settings to rotate around the the plane left/right/up/down with the hat switch but there is no assignment to rotate the view up or down to center the plane in the middle of the screen. The planes seem too much at the bottom of the screen and I cant transit view down to center the plane externally like I can in the cockpit. There is also no transit in or out toward or away from the plane externally other than zoom. I'm hoping MS adds these view settings. I also noticed that the taxiway lights at night are purple instead of blue.  Otherwise I'm loving the new sim!

Also, there is no engine 1 or engine 2 reverse thrust option. Only toggle reverse thrust option and that you have to assign to a button and then move the thrust levers on the Logitech throttles forward to engage reverse thrust instead of holding them down past the indentation at the bottom of their axis. Xplane has the option to hold engine 1, 2 , etc at full reverse by pulling the thrust levers past the indentation as far as they'll go. There is no engine specific reverse thrust assignment.
