[+russouk2004 6,959]

can we add cameras to specific a\c?....via max cameras.?

was thinking of adding one to a tail of a certain a\c,that wont affect other a\c when not using the one mentioned first...

or,how do I move camera to position on this a\c`s tail,and only use it for this a\c alone...thnx lol..

Not really but you can define custom one via viewlist.ini and bind it to custom key in controls.ini for use with the given aircraft. Also there are certain limitations because of the engine of course

I did a vertical "camera" for the U-2, to replicate the drift sight.  I think all one needs is a pit with a radar scope (for the "tv" view), and set the angles.

You'd need to specify, iirc, TV in an avionics ini

 

this is the EOCamera from the U-2A (if you want to study it more, it's here -- http://combatace.com/files/file/11575-lockheed-u-2a-for-sf2/)

CameraFOV=30.000000
CameraAngles=0.0,-85.0,0.0

I think the actual view is tied into the camera angle
