So yea, let me know what you come up with on your end. One more strange thing-the boxes where you make these adjustments, there's like two sections to each settings box, a left & a right, the left side I programmed buttons on Saitek yoke to one of the switches, for left/right, & it worked, and then I added the hi-hat setting also for left/right, in the right side box, and now they both control my left & right views. I'm of course not leaving it like that, but its interesting that there are apparently two active settings within each box. Anyway, best of luck with your new setup.
June 21, 20214 yr I only use my stick / throttle 1-2% of a flight during takeoff and landings. Once I'm on AP it's all my Logitech MX 50 trackball for switching freelook, switching External, really smooth panning. clicking buttons ectera.

Great post btw, thanks.

Great post btw, thanks. Very easy to configure. I use the wheel click to toggle freelook, and rightclick to reset the view. I have used trackballs for years so it is very natural for me.

June 21, 20214 yr One great feature of chase plane was the ability to assign multiple views to the same button and then the button would cycle them. Ciao!

June 23, 20214 yr Ok, what a nightmare I’ve been having. bottom line is you can use all 8 positions on your hat switch to assign to custom views. But it seems a bit twitchy. It might be my old Logitech 3D pro. I have other buttons that I can program that work flawlessly so I can get my 45 deg views inside while flying. Works great shooting a pattern. my word, an incredible flight sim. Ciao!
