3rd person space shooter

I am making a third person space shooter.  I want to fly in the direction I am looking, i have the camera attached to the ship, but the problem i have is that when I turn the ship goes out of view. For example if I turn 90 degrees to the left my camera and ship will face left but the ship's position is still in front of the camera in the z direction instead of the x. One thing I thought might work would be to rotate the ship around the camera or the camera around the ship when I turn, or to disable head tracking because it works fine in unity using the mouse to steer but I don't know how.  I don't know if this makes sense, but I don't know how to explain it. If anyone has a solution I would appreciate it. Also I am new to VR and unity so if you could explain it in detail it would help a lot thanks. 
This is the code I am using to turn the ship.

public class AlignToTracker : MonoBehaviour {
    public Transform hmdOrientation; //in the inspector add the "OVRCameraRig/CenterEyeAnchor"

    private float adjustPos=1;

    private Vector3 tempRot;
	// Use this for initialization
	void Start () {
		
	}
	
	// Update is called once per frame
	void Update () {


        tempRot.x = hmdOrientation.localEulerAngles.x;
        tempRot.y = hmdOrientation.localEulerAngles.y;
        tempRot.z = hmdOrientation.localEulerAngles.z;
        
        //update head rotation
        transform.localEulerAngles = tempRot;
    }
}
