I'd have to go check exact property names, but you can set the

vantage point anywhere you want.

A 3d modeller could create a little flat rendition of their R/C model
field as a single object (or collection of objects) and place that on top of
the default FlightGear terrain at the correct location.

It should be pretty straight forward to setup a little R/C modeling
airfield and fly from it via a modeler's perspective.

We've done just about exactly this for one of our U of MN UAV projects.
There are a couple pictures and movies if you wade through this link:

[For what it's worth, and completely unrelated, but hopefully soon to be
related to this uav project: GumStix == very cool.]



Sorry, I shouldn't post before I finish my morning coffee ... a few of the
more glaring mistakes are corrected in the above version of my post ...
