Installation Instructions

The folder must be copied into the main directory of MSFS, not into the Community folder.

Proceed only if you feel confident about the next steps.

Step-by-Step Guide:

Locate the MSFS main directory where the "Airplanes" folder is located. This folder contains subfolders for each airplane that has custom camera views.

Note: If you haven't set up any custom cameras yet, the "Airplanes" folder might be empty or might not exist at all.

Path to the folder based on your version:

MSFS 2020:

MS Store: C:\Users\*UserName*\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\SimObjects\Airplanes

Steam: C:\Users\*UserName*\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft Flight Simulator\SimObjects\Airplanes

MSFS 2024:

MS Store: C:\Users\*UserName*\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.Limitless_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\SimObjects\Airplanes

Steam: C:\Users\*UserName*\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024\SimObjects\Airplanes

>>IMPORTANT<<

Make a backup of any old files that might already exist in the subfolders. This way, if there are any issues, you can easily revert to your old camera views.

Installation: Drag and Drop

1. Extract the downloaded file.
2. Copy the folder into the "Airplanes" folder.

Ensure that your custom camera views are assigned to keys in your simulator settings.

You can do this by navigating here Settings > Controls > Camera > Cockpit Camera > LOAD CUSTOM CAMERA
You will find the slots 0 to 9 there. Assign a key to each slot you want to use.

By default, custom camera views are assigned to ALT + 0–9. Since pressing two keys can be inconvenient, I recommend remapping them to the Numpad for quicker and easier access.
