Hi Stephen
Firstly what version of stellarium are you using. The CCD sensor was only perfected with build 4856 and was completly changed again with build 4858.
As far as I can guess the Toucam will have the common pixel size of 5.2microns and the chip will be nominally 1316 x 987 pixels so the chip size will be approx 7.4mm by 5.06mm
These values can be entered for a start and then see how the view compares with a full frame shot
These are the values I entered in my ocular.ini which works for the early and late plugin versions
3\name=toucam
3\resolutionX=1316
3\resolutionY=987
3\chip_width=7.4
3\chip_height=5.06
3\pixel_width=5.2
3\pixel_height=5.2
The actual FOV will depend on the focal length of you telescope
