0005042: AH1Z PilotCamera Does Not Move
The PilotCamera in the AH1Z cannot move, at least using the mouse. I see it's inherited from the AH-99, but it's static unlike the AH-99's camera. Another RHS Helicopter, the AH-64, also inherits from the AH-99, but it's camera can move just like the AH-99's.
1. Open Arma 3 Editor
2. Place any RHS AH-1Z Helicopter with Player set as Pilot
3. Enter the PilotCamera (default is LCtrl+RMB)
4. Attempt to move camera.
No tags attached.

AH-1Z only has one electro-optical turret on the nose (AN/AAQ-30 TSS).
It doesn't have a PNVS sight head for the pilot that is independent of the gunner's TADS sight head in the way that Apache does.

The AH-1Z in RHS' pilotCamera is relaying the view from the gunner's TSS. So it points where ever the gunner is aiming with the M197 cannon slaved to his turret.
We haven't incorporated any kind of pilot override for aiming the cannon on the AH-1Z or AH-64, so for the AH-1Z at least the pilot's view through the TSS is under the sole authority of the gunner.
