Dash 8-400 Majestic/jf

[Roger]

I bought the Majestic Dash 8-400 on sale and I know there is a lot to learn about the systems etc. However while looking around the exterior I noticed that the spot view seems locked. I only ever use gradual transition in spot view and before I claim a refund I'm wondering if anyone has found a way to enable gradual transition in spot view?

I think this is due to the model using slew mode to fly.

Edit
...... yes the FAQ on their site states this is the case.

i always use the transition view too, but this is such a great model I have to look past this limitation in this case.

Roger, a shot in the dark here...
If you edited the main "Cameras" cfg. file where the main "FSX" cfg. file is located, would that help ?

I do not own the Majestic Dash 8-400.

Here is the " Locked Spot" that I had edited in mine a long time ago since I did not like the way FSX carried out this view, I had always like the [3] FS9 options for "roll, loop, ....." or whatever they were.
