Beyond me why you would want to disable this - so much immersion to be had from head movement camera effects 

 

in fact I think adobo need to add additional head movement effects for bumpy runways - p3d a2a had it much better in this regard

Of course you don't have to disable it if you don't want to. It's just a way to smooth things out if it's bothering you to be constantly zooming in and out when you're trying to change a setting on the panel.

And perfectly smooth air does exist. 😉 I actually like finding it some times...

On the funnier side....@Hippo :

Would you mind if I fix the title of your post so it doesn't sound like you are standing at a urinal? 🤔 I'm assuming you meant cockpit.

Wash your mouth out with soap!

But seriously, many thanks for the reply.  It's nice to know that such an option is available.  Really, I think MS/Asobo should offer the option to just turn this off.

As for me, I've just bound the HDG change to my joystick.  It'll do for now.

I tried but was not able to set the zoom to right mouse+scroll - thats where it belongs as right mouse is the look around mode anyway 😞

Put it to press on the wheel itself (3rd mouse button) + wheel rotation.

I think like in all games there should be a menu item to enable/disable such things. That way both kinds of player are happy.

I also do not like those exaggerated camera movements to simulate shakes and such. I dont have MSFS but have seen many vids and also Ive tried similar plugins for Xplane (Headshake) and uninstalled them in a hurry!

It's kind of like depth of field and motion blur,  why would I want my screen to be blurry? I turn up graphics setting to avoid that 🤣 I always turn those off. I mean, don't our eyes do this anyway?

I actually like a little bit of shaking, when it's appropriate. After all, that's what adds to the realism. But like the OP, I had trouble changing headings, altitudes, etc. with the mouse wheel before I eventually assigned those functions to the joystick.

The need to turn it off via the weather function came to me when I was trying to shoot approaches. Generally speaking, the lowest visibility approaches have relatively smooth air and I was having trouble using the AP knobs with all of the bumping going on.

There needs to be a "Fogged In" weather preset which allows for the visibility to be nice and low and still be able to hand-fly the approach without getting bounced around so much. For now, I'll just keep turning off the wind.

The problem is when you take off with 4 knots of wind slightly to the left - variable if you like - the movement is not realistic. It's overdone - needs to be toned down a bit.

Then it'll be perfect.

Oh no! The "non-sim" "for gamers" is too realistic!

I couldn't turn the nubs on the G430 as everything is moving around. Also it would be great to have 2D pop-out window to see better and you don't have to zoom all the way to the gps to be able to read and see everything correctly.

Negative on that.

I'm a real pilot with over 500 hours on SEP - PPL.

Realistic - it ain't.

 

I want more vibration head shake effects like in active camera or XPR in XP11 !! We need touchdown effects !!!

As I use the mouse wheel to change AP HDG, it gets very old, very fast, that the knob "moves away from under the mouse cursor", and I change the view zoom.  Arrgh!

Preach on my friend. That exact scenario is the bane of my existence every flight

Set a view to zoom in on the panel. Makes it easier to turn knobs even with movements.  Since we don't have pop outs.
