I'm reluctant to reply since I'm not too sure about my answer, but I do recall somebody who produced a "cold and dark" setup which also allows you to change the zoom factor. That's all I can tell ya.

I'm not sure if it will fix the VC views, but try opening up the Panel.cfg file, and in the [VIEWS] section, check to make sure all the zoom entries are set to 1.0

It may or may not work, but that's the only thing I can find

What happens if you set the view to what you want then save the flight?

I think you were on the right track, Andrew.

Going back to my favorite Baron panel there is an entry:

[VIEWS] ...
VIEW_FORWARD_ZOOM=0.750

and the SDK says:

"[Views] section: Specifying the View Direction of Panels
This section specifies the view direction in which panels appear within the aircraft. You can set the following views...

VIEW_FORWARD_ZOOM ...

Enables you to change the default zoom of a view. All rear views provide a default zoom of 1.0. Valid entries include 1.5 and .75."

This seems to be designed for the 2D panel but, what the heck, backup your panel.cfg and experiment.
