In FMS, pilots control the aircraft from the ground, like real radio-controlled aircraft are controlled. When the model is airborne, the "camera" of the simulator shows the aircraft flying from the point of view of the pilot instead of the aircraft itself. Pilots have to use this visual information to control the aircraft, including overcoming control reversal when the model is flying toward the pilot.
Other camera options include a mode that chases the aircraft. While this is not a realistic angle compared to real radio-controlled flight, it does help beginning pilots learn how to control the aircraft and to study how it reacts to the controls. Many commercial simulators feature this option as well.
