As a newbie simmer this is the first time youtube has recommended one of your videos. Camera management has been one of the hardest areas to get my head around. Thanks for this calm and relaxed explanation - looking forward to experimenting next time I fire up the sim at the weekend.

Well done! Thank you for this very professional video. I will now take your advise and improve my drone camera skills. What a remarkable sim. The inclusion of this novel drone just adds to the enjoyment of playing MFS2020. BTW, I have been using Slew Mode to quickly move to a spot for further investigation with the drone. I will now have to see which is faster, drone or slew.

This is exactly what I've done using my Xbox controller allowing you to "fly" the camera around more smoothly and precisely and, in addition, I have set up my X-52Pro stick & throttle to allow me to fly the drone more like a helicopter (subtle hint there, HELICOPTER) as there currently are none.

Probably the BEST video on FS2020 I've seen in a while thank you, so do you have your gamepad & joystick both attached to the PC? How do you designate one or the other for flying the aircraft versus operating the camera?
@TheFlightSimDeck
@TheFlightSimDeck 3 жыл бұрын
Thank you High Flyer really appreciate that! Yes I have my T16000M joy stick or yoke always connected with the game controller. When in drone mode it locks the aircraft controls so the controller cannot affect the aircraft. But you can also unmap all of the flight controls from your game pad so they do not interfere with your flying.

Good demo of what can be done in the drone Showcase mode. It didn't work for me, at first. Unless you know how to bind the physical controller to the right view modes, none of this will happen. You might consider adding instructions on setting up these bindings using the FS2020 control options menu. Maybe FS default has all these settings for Xbox. In my case I'm using a mouse and keyboard to control the views, and a Logitek joystick for main control surfaces of aircraft, and a second small joystick for throttle and rudder. None of the drone movements worked until I found and set the right control movements in the FS menu.

I know this is an older video, but I have a question. I've been using the drone camera, pretty much since day one with my xbox controller, and I love it. I recently just got interested in trying to make cinematic videos. One problem I noticed it the drone roll seems to very slowly roll to the right over time. Its not an axis, so you cant adjust dead zones, so I cleared the right bumper assignment on my controller, and reassigned the drone camera roll function to my X and B buttons. It still does it though. Is there a way to stop the camera roll from slowly listing to the right?
@TheFlightSimDeck
@TheFlightSimDeck 2 жыл бұрын
Yeah I have to deal with that roll too. I started using head tracking with the drone camera and I don’t notice the roll so much now. You can correct by moving your head. After one of these updates I think something changed. I also have camera movement sliders that constantly shift to zero and I have to change them.

Patrick, I really appreciate your replies earlier, I wonder if You would humor me one more question? When using “drone lock” what exactly is it locked on to?! There have been times I can record a fly-by shot using drone lock and it seems to follow the aircraft perfectly if I don’t move the drone, but if I turn on drone lock and try to move the drone around the aircraft while keeping The camera pointed directly at the aircraft, sometimes where the camera is pointing seems to drift off the aircraft, and rather than stay in the center of the focus, the aircraft appears to slide off to the side of the frame. How do I use drone lock and know that it is locked on on the aircraft itself, so that it will not drift off when I move the drone?
@TheFlightSimDeck
@TheFlightSimDeck 2 жыл бұрын
Drone lock is locked to the aircraft. It will move where the aircraft moves. When you unlock it, it's as if you are standing in one spot. So if you wanted to record a plane spotting clip, you would unlock the drone and then move yourself to the plane spotting location. This will allow you to have the camera placed independent of the aircraft so you can watch it from a spot.
@AV8R_1
@AV8R_1 2 жыл бұрын
@@TheFlightSimDeck No, I get all that, what I’m describing is that you can put drone lock on but then as you pan the camera around it in an orbit, the aircraft will go out of center as if the “lock” has locked on a point beyond the aircraft somewhere. But I think I might have found a work around. If turning on drone lock, be sure the drone camera is either far away from the aircraft when you turn it on, or if close up, be sure it is placed directly in front of or behind the aircraft and pointed directly at its nose or tail. Turning it on when close in and pointed at a side or three quarter view seems to result is the out of shot issue I described.

Again, nothing against this guy, but I just want to point out that at no point during this video did this guy actually fly the plane. This whole drone video thing is the most ridiculous useless nonsense that I have ever experienced. How badly microsoft missed the mark on this really has me wondering how they are still a company. It's a flight simulator without the flight, since you have to spend all your time fighting with the camera. Now if you'll excuse me I'm heading over the Apple store as I have lost all confidence across the board.
