For ships, you can use SetGS "fFlightCameraOffsetBaseY:FlightCamera" -10 to edit the FOV. It changes the position of the camera on the Y axis - forward and backward. This is effectively the FOV. You can also enter a modified version, swapping Y for Z, and you are able to modify the camera's position on the Z axis - up and down.
You can use these in the Console, or create a Batch File (google .bat file) with these. SetGS "fFlightCameraOffsetBaseY:FlightCamera" -10 SetGS "fFlightCameraOffsetBaseZ:FlightCamera" 10
Long explanation of how to change it to suit you more, and why this works: v v v

The first one is Y - forward and backward. To move the camera further back (you could also think of it as moving the ship ahead), make a higher negative ( - ) number. So -15 is further back than -10. I use -18 with a large ship.
The second one is Z - up and down. To move the camera further up (you could also think of it as moving the ship down), make a higher number. So 15 is higher up than 10. I use 18 with a large ship.
Note you can also use X axis, left to right. It will keep your ship off to one side or the other. I wouldn't recommend it, but it is possible if you want it, for some reason.
Is the SaveIniFiles a separate command or tagged onto the end of the line above it? If tagged at the end I get an error saying they were not saved. If I do it as a separate command there is no confirmation it did anything.
I don't know why, but my FOV didn't change when I manually put the setting in my starfieldcustom file - but this fixed it. Thank you SO much - it was driving me crazy!!!
Nope cant seem to get it to work no matter what, its ' key on UK keyboard not ~ best I can get it to do is come with a warning about losing achievements and this message
bat ffp 100 Expected end of line Compiled script not saved! bat fpp 100 Expected end of line Compiled script not save
Time to uninstall and stick with dodgy FOV as less annoying that faffing with this, pity
I tried to follow precisely the instructions. I get this error, and i don't have a typo, just as in OP second command bat tpp. Plus OP may have a typo, because you have to type in the message manually here. My results are the same. It doesn't work for me.
thanks but line does nothing for me :( I noticed flight view only changes in 1st person through fFPWorldFOV but fTPWorldFOV still doesn't affect ship 3rd person.
Doesn't have any effect for me... Looks like the command works, it changes the value in Starfieldcustom.ini... but does not change my view... here is the ini

Other good presets I came up with:
SetGS "fFlightCameraOffsetBaseY:FlightCamera" -12
SetGS "fFlightCameraOffsetBaseZ:FlightCamera" 12
SetGS "fFlightCameraOffsetBaseY:FlightCamera" -15
SetGS "fFlightCameraOffsetBaseZ:FlightCamera" 15
SetGS "fFlightCameraOffsetBaseY:FlightCamera" -18
SetGS "fFlightCameraOffsetBaseZ:FlightCamera" 18
first person:
SetINISetting "fFPWorldFOV:Camera" "110"
SaveIniFiles
third person:
SetINISetting "fTPWorldFOV:Camera" "110"
SaveIniFiles
you dont need the saveinifiles part if you're just testing different ones until you find the one you like
also, it does seem to be 70, at least in first person
Open "StarfieldCustom" in "notepad".
Go to "[Camera]" and edit "fFPWorldFOV=**" to "fFPWorldFOV=100"

Just follow the basic instructions you've put "bat ffp 100" when its "bat fpp100"
bat fpp 100
Expected end of line.
Compiled script not saved!
Its "bat fpp100" without quote
not fpp 100
not ffp 100
smh
fFlightCameraFOV="amount"
In starfieldcustom.ini
