Is there anyway to move around quicker in the 3D cockpit view. For example, i'm using Heinz' 787 which has a full 3D fuselage inside that you can navigate through when in the 3D mode, but using the arrow keys it is extremely slow moving around in it. Is there a better way or some setting I don't know about to be able to do it quickly and smoothly as I see in videos sometimes, or no?

You can hold down shift and that can speed up the movement.

Use your mouse to look around in 3D cockpit mode.

I use my 8-way switch on my yoke to move around quickly. There are several speeds available in the advanced keys assignment section as well. You can also use spare quadrant levers for up/down and left/right if you have any free.
