When you are in Drone View, press the Toggle Cockpit View key, and you'll be directly in the cockpit.

Not sure if we are talking about the same thing, but I found out that the best way (for me) is to use both drone and external view as toggle, and never mix the drone and external view. Meaning:

Cockpit -> External -> Cockpit

or

Cockpit -> Drone -> Cockpit

but never

Cockpit -> Drone -> External -> ...

The issue I have is if I am in the Drone view, and go to External, I end up in some weird high tail up view. I can toggle cockpit from there with the aforementioned key, but if I go to drone again, I will again end up in that weird view.

So: never mix drone and external.

Oh and btw, I find the UI of MSFS 2024 superior to that of the MSFS 2020. Especially control bindings. 

What I do think however, is that function descriptions should be better.

I did that too.  Yes, I finally purchased MSFS2024 last night and spent a good hour setting up a few key commands.

I would like to know why they changed some of the default keystrokes that we've gotten accustomed to over the last 4 years?  That seems non-productive.

On 2020 I had Toggle Drone "\" and then W A S D, R&F (up down) and numpad was yaw and pitch. Would love to get that back again. Maybe further playing is needed here.

E/Q instead of R/F

I assume that you are able to change the keyboard settings?
