drone and external views

Featured Replies

Hi all,

every time I start MSFS, drone and external views initiate from the same position (behing the aircraft).

Once I change point of view it stays during the flight but once I start MSFS next time again initial positions are reset and starts agaion in the position behind the aircratf.

Any tip or idea how the initial position could be predefined or saved (either for the whole MSFS or at least for particular model/aircartf) ?

 

Many thanks !

I don't think that is possible. See it as part of the flight preparation 🙂

The default pilot position, landing view etc. can be changed, however.

We're fools to make war on our brothers in arms.

There's a command to reset the drone view back directly behind the plane. So on the hat that I use to move the drone, if I push the hat inward instead of moving it, then it returns to the default position. (It flies back quickly to the default position, does not just snap back the position). I use the same button to reset the drone, reset the external view,and reset the cockpit view. Same button resets no matter if I'm using cockpit,  drone , or outside camera
