The monitor is sitting too low. With the incline of the seat you'll end up with a serious pain in your neck.
I use a 42" monitor that sits 36" of the floor, and about 3.5' away.
If you build one make it comfortable, and don't forget the cup holder.

(Image removed from quote.)

Right now the monitor, and speakers are mounted on the wall temporarily until I can build a mount for them that is part of the pit. The IR camera is also on a temporary mount I plan on sitting it on top of the left speaker when I get that in position.

My main objective was to build something that is comfortable, easy to get into and out of, as well as relatively easy to transport. I can break it down in less that 15 minutes, and it will with the exception of the monitor fit into my 2001 Mustang.

Where did u find that cool background? I saw another one simular to that but with a P51. and it looks awesome but i dont know where to find it

Found it on the internet. Did a google image search for F4U corsair. The hard part is finding one large enough to fill the screen without having too stretch it.
