    I suggest adding an orbit camera to the center of the plane

    the camera is focused at the center of mass of a body, so If you have a cockpit separated from the rest of the plane by a spring, rotator, piston, or detacher, it will focus on the center of the thing directly connected to the cockpit/not separated by the parts I mentioned

    I believe it actually aims more at the center of mass for some reason

    Attaching it to a piston makes the game see the plane as a different object than the cockpit, so its centering the cam on the cockpits mass. An easy fix is to just use XML and change the cockpits CoM to be farther back. Hope this helps.
