Anyone ever noticed every once in awhile your view in the cockpit changes just like that.  This cockpit setting happened in the middle of a fight between me and a spit....  needless to say, at this point I ran away.  very hard to fight from this angle, and since I had to land right away anyway, cause the spit nailed my oil and fuel, well, it was touch and go.

It happens sometimes and I don't know what keys I hit that causes it...to get your normal views back just bring up the clipboard.

This "Stuck view" phenomenon is familiar to me too.  Luckly its rare and Clipboard on/off solve it every time.

BTW
I have Saitek X36 usb hotas. Maybe something to do with my stick?

Ahhhhhhh!


I recognise that angle and yeah, it *has* happend to me.....but very rarely and usually in combat......so I hit the F1 key so fast I hardly notice it.  Never got the view stuck there though, F1 always works.

That looks more like you moved your head rather than used view keys?  F1 will reset it - I have the F1 programmed on my stick for quick access...  :)

It has happened to me, but the only time is if I am adjusting a particular view... all of a sudden it will uncontrollably slide to the left as you have pictured, and I have to use the "fixes" previously mentioned, then retry setting the view I wanted to set.  It only started with 1.09 as best as I can recall.
