Space Bar Camera

[shamrockflyer 647]

Is there any proven method that allows you to pan the camera around with the space bar + mouse, kind of like how it is in FSX/P3D.

Don't get me wrong, I like using the middle mouse button to enable free look, but after spending the last 15+ years using the space bar + mouse method, it is a method that works well for me.

Another thing is adjusting the cockpit camera. At the moment when pressing the up/down, left/right arrow keys to adjust my fov - the speed at which the camera moves is far too fast to get a precise location of the camera for the position I want it. So is there a way to reduce to speed at which the camera operates when pressing the arrow keys?

May I suggest that you try one of the freeware head tracking apps for your cellphone,  or web cam?  I use a trackIR,   and once you have head tracking it's hard to fly without it.  For me at least.

There are apps for android,  iphone,  and webcam.   I don't have personal experience with any of them,   but I've seen many people report great success.

I believe there are settings for camera speeds under general options,

then go to camera and scroll down to camera speed settings, should be there.
