Landing the Mosquito?

Erm, OK, I still can't find it.

All I can see towards the end of the list of controls that adjust the view is the set of Look controls under Snap View and the set of Pan View controls below those.

And I've had a play with Look Up and Pan View Up and they don't work to raise the view up, Look Up doesn't even work unless I press F9 and then it does the same as Pan View Up which rotates the view upwards, rather than moving it straight up as though you were raising your head.



EDIT - I've just read this - http://simhq.net/downloads/air_comba...1_Guide_RC.pdf

It says "Raise with mouse is achieved with the mouse wheel and Activate Mouse Move Mode button pressed" and says this is set under Head Movement, but when I go to look at my controls I have no section marked Head Movement?!

That looks like the readme for v4.11m and I'm getting the feeling that because I run 4.10.1m I'm SoL on that feature. Shame, that probably would have helped, but DBW/TFM wouldn't work for me in 4.11...

Thanks I'll take your advice on-board. I don't have TrackIR though, I can't afford it, nor do I like the idea of wearing a silly hat/headband, that's why I went with a PS3 Eye cam and FacetrackNoIR.

But as I said FacetrackNoIR isn't all that great for me so far, so I just stick to using the Pan View left/right controls that I've mapped to the d-pad style thumbstick on my flight stick.
