I've recently been tinkering with using different control modes for different types of flying. In specific, I'd like to have Control Mode 1 be the "combat" mode, and then use Control Mode 3 for a "leisure" mode (casual flying to and from target, between combat stints, etc). I've found that none of the mode are assigned a hot key. I did that with mode 1 and 3 (left 2 for gv's). In the LW server, I upped a Mossi and sat on the runway and only changed the main views from dead on through the gun sight, to centered over the seat at a comfortable level up from the seat. The Mossi FB Mk IV is easy to gauge because I can reference the Mossi B Mk XVI (it has no gun sight so HTC set it as "normal" as can be.
I'm finding that going from Mode 3 (typical pilot view) to Mode 1 (gun sight view) is not working so well, while in flight I'm not able fully switch between modes. Is it even possible? The test bar says so, but the plane views are not changing.
HTC? Any guidance?
