Indeed, the standard Angle of Attack of a camera (abbreviated as "AoA", the angle at which it faces the ground), is 304º.
What you want is a camera where the AoA is 0º (or 360º, same thing).

  • Camera - Set {Player}'s camera Angle of attack to 0.00 over 0.00 seconds
(Found in Camera - Set Camera Field Timed)

But when you do this, all it will show is black.
It does this because the Z height (height from ground to camera) of the camera is 0.00, so it goes through the terrain, instead of floating above it.

To change this, use:
  • Camera - Set {Player}'s camera Height Offset to {Height} over 0.00 seconds
You can set {Height} to whatever you want. 64-128 is recommended for what you want I think.
