You admit to changing the FoV??? This is quite different than using snap view alone as the snap view controls do not change the FoV at all. Sorry for all this confusion, but you led me to believe that you never changed the FoV to avoid "real-life" distortion and that just didn't make sense. Believe me, I have thought about this stuff. I fly bombers and fighters full switch. Seeing the gauges with the least amount of effort is essential to me (e.g., monitoring speed gauge when pulling g). But to each his own.

Your new setup sounds promising. Good luck with it.
