Spot & VC = Pan Rates

I was wanting to change the camera pan rates in both my VC and Spot Views. So, out in the WWW I went in search of an answer, and a solution to the choppy/fast rates at which they were set. So, if your pan rates are anything but smooth, you might want to try these settings also.

To get to the camera settings (the FSX.cfg is also there) goto;

"C" drive | Users | Your Name | AppData | Roaming | Microsoft | FSX

Once there, open the cameras.cfg (with notepad) and change the bold areas.

NOTE; The forward slashes after the words added, they cancel out the previous setting. I recommend you do as I did so you can revert back to the original settings by deleting ALL areas I have shown in RED
