liazkam 1 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Hello all, What is the recommended viewpoint for the pilot's eyes in the DHC6 and the zoom, in order to get the most realistic pilot's viewpoint? Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deputy Sheriffs mopperle 4162 Posted February 21, 2012 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted February 21, 2012 Depends on your size But the standard view fits well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_Smith 1116 Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 I personally tend to zoom out to 0.50, it seems to give me the best all round view Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James A 39 Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 and if you use TrackIR then set all your views to 0.40 so you get a smooth transition from one view to the next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes James, I use TrackIR. Zoom 0.40 does give me a good view of the panel and scenery, but doesn't it distort the outside view? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piper Pilot 90 Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Hi, I would also recommend to zoom at least to 0.5 as in FS the default view is unrealistic. Objects are far closer in reality as they appear in the computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James A 39 Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 but doesn't it distort the outside view? Not that I have noticed but, will take a good look the next time I fire up FSX. Also, I would asume it all depends on the system etcetera, as no two systems will be the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluewolfe 0 Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 In former versions of FS, I have used the zoom quite a bit, however, on FSX, I can't find it anywhere. What am I missing?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_Smith 1116 Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 With default key mapping + and - (the ones next to your backspace key does the zoom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluewolfe 0 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Thanks, Matt ... looks like we have other stuff in common ... love dark brews and am a B3 player, but, that's off topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
