310 Fuel Tank Selector access

Featured Replies

I don't spend a lot of time in MSFS so forgive me if this is a stupid question. I cannot seem to get my camera positioned to see  the tank selectors on the cockpit floor. I get to a point where I can see the AUX position, but the wing crossbar is in the way. I mean this should not be something difficult to do since you want to do it during flight, right? Why is there no preset camera position for this, or is there and I'm not seeing it? 

Thanks,

Jack

Jack, I unfortunately can't tell you if there is a preset for the fuel selectors but perhaps the best way for you would be to simply create custom cameras. You can google search to see how it's done (quick and painless!). Hope this helps.

Use the Alt key plus the 4 keyboard arrows to position above the selectors, zoom in with your mouse wheel, then use Ctrl+Alt+a top keyboard row number key to save a Custom View.  Like Ctrl+Alt+4.  Then you can use Alt+that number (Alt+) to return to that view.  You can also assign Alt+that number to a button on one of your controls.
