In that case, consider rebinding the arrow keys to pan the view.  That
worked well for me (I keep it as a local mod loaded from my .fgfsrc).
I'm appending the bindings to the end of this message.

I'll accept contributions of 3D models.

Here are my bindings for making the arrow keys control the view:

  <PropertyList>

   <input>

    <keyboard>

     <key n="356">
      <name>Left</name>
      <desc>Scroll view left</desc>
      <binding>
       <command>property-adjust</command>
       <property>/sim/view/goal-offset-deg</property>
       <step>1</step>
      </binding>
     </key>

     <key n="357">
      <name>Up</name>
      <desc>Scroll view up</desc>
      <binding>
       <command>property-adjust</command>
       <property>/sim/view/goal-tilt-deg</property>
       <step>1</step>
      </binding>
     </key>

     <key n="358">
      <name>Right</name>
      <desc>Scroll view right</desc>
      <binding>
       <command>property-adjust</command>
       <property>/sim/view/goal-offset-deg</property>
       <step>-1</step>
      </binding>
     </key>

     <key n="359">
      <name>Down</name>
      <desc>Scroll view down</desc>
      <binding>
       <command>property-adjust</command>
       <property>/sim/view/goal-tilt-deg</property>
       <step>-1</step>
      </binding>
     </key>

    </keyboard>

   </input>

  </PropertyList>


All the best,


David
