Using CM Eye mode to watch fights.

[fuzeman]

With the recent change to the keymapping in AHII and not being able to have duplicate meanings or commands for a single key you need to keymap a few new keys for CM Eye to work.
These commands are:
1) CM Eye Move Back
2) CM Eye Move Forward
3) CM Eye Move Map

You then enter CM Eye mode using the View Mode Fixed command, F5, which was the old CM Eye view.

In my example I have set:
1) CM Eye Move Back to KEY_PAD_SLASH
2) CM Eye Move Forward to KEY_PAD_ASTERICK

Then from the Tower, as it was before, you hit F5 View Mode Fixed to enter that view and then the CM Eye Move keys will function.
As before your throttle control will change the speed you move around at and you should use very low throttle settings.
Also as before, the F1 view will bring you back to the Tower and exit View Mode Fixed.

In a nutshell, the only changes you really have to make are setting the new CM Eye Move Back, Forward and Map commands.
Any questions on this please feel free to inquire.

Here is the way I do it.  

Copy controler mode 1 to controler mode 4.  Under controler mode 4, set buttons for CMeye_FWD, and CMeye_BACK.

Find an unassigned key for USE_CONTROL_MODE_4.  (I used key N)

Press F5 and N, and now you have HOTAS CMeye control.  (No need to be three handed trying to operate stick, throttle, and keys all at once.  All controls are on stick)
