New to Game - Changing Views

[Tazilon]

I am new to the Flying Circus and IL-2 series but not to flight sims.  Why in the world does my view keep switching when I don't change it?   Example 1:  I am lining up a shot and use my rudder to yaw the plane to the left.  My view turns fairly rapidly to the left and ruins my chance to fire.   Example 2:  We come at each other and as we pass, my view goes haywire.  It isn't auto-tracking, it just seemingly randomly goes left or right.  At the moment, this is really destroying the game for me.  It's like I can't control my own head; the program is just sporadically turning my head for me.  Any ideas?

Possibly you've got a key binding that's conflicting? That sounds really weird. Are you using any kind of head tracking hardware/software?

[Tazilon]

Its all default.  Haven't changed any key bindings yet.

Are you using head-tracking.. was the pertinent question ?

Welcome to the community by the way!
Yes, the type of head tracking if any, you are using would be helpful to know.

 

None - hat switch

Track IR

You have to check if there is any conflict with snap views and such, because not always the default settings will assign the right keys. In DCS I have to go over everything and set new key bindings with my G940.

 

You might be triggering snap views while controlling the plane.

Also, are you using the mouse or a joystick?
