    You can actually look straight down on top of you while you're flying. Turn on autowalk, then pan the camera around to where you want it using the left mouse button instead of the right one. I'm not sure how you'd go about doing it on a console, unfortunately.

    Yea, definitely doesn't work that way on console, it just flies in the direction wherever the center of the screen is, so when you look down it aims down, up for up. Maybe the controls can be changed around though, not sure

    On consoles, if you turn on autorun (L1+Left Stick), and then try to pan camera, your mount will turn to that direction (On legacy controls at least).

    Although if you have enough coordination, you can just fly manually while panning camera, by having mount fly in opposite direction your panning the camera, result will be that you'll fly straight while panning. This is harder than it sounds though, kinda like rubbing your belly and patting your head at the same time, took me about an hour or so of messing around with it though to get use to it.

    Turn on mouse mode (L1 + R3)
