To truly address FOV in MSFS, you need to make a bunch of camera view slices to fill the external rendering area. There are a few simpit specific forums that explain how this is accomplished. To clarify though when you add more cameras you divide the efficiency MSFS has to render everything. It's a tradeoff.
