One of our testers has been using his from the beginning in MSFS.

Hi Norman, would you happen to know if there is a way in MSFS to omit the virtual cockpit from the outside view monitors? I know many homecockpit builders would like to achieve something similar to the "View-Cockpit-Cockpit" selection in P3D. Up to now nothing comes close to the Viewgroup options offered by P3D for a triple monitor setup for just the outside view.

Hi Steve,

In P3D from the dropdown menu when you select View-Cockpit-Cockpit you get the 2D cockpit. SHIFT+0 and SHIFT+1 to hide the 2D cockpit and expand the outside view across the whole display.

For my set up, I've set up three 4k TVs in 1080p resolution for only the outside view using Viewgroups. Hopefully a similar feature will become available for MSFS 2020/2024.
