Title: whats your fav position?
Post by: Dastrdly on January 01, 2008, 11:11:15 AM
after some feedback on flight chair ive been working on. ive become curious as to how others have thier flight components (stick,throttle ect) set up.

i have always flown with center stick on some kind of support & throttle to my left & of course pedals positioned for feet.

ive noticed most 'game chairs' have stick/pad to the right.

what was the most comon positions for stick in most models of planes of this era?

Throttle to the left, X52 Stick to my right, keyboard wherever it may be for the day (front of the desktop for me, or very back if my sister got on before), mouse (same as keyboard), and an La-7 in my gunsights.


That's my favorite position.

EDIT: And you can't forget about some inspirational music in the background :D

Throttle on left, stick on right, keyboard in middle (laptop) and mouse on the outside of the stick.

69 when there is only one girl. Where they are two my fav position is 103,5.  

Thus:
69/2= 34,5
69+34.5= 103,5

I put everything I can't map onto joystick on the lil numpad in the middle.
I don't like putting a keyboard inbetween, causes too much space between throttle and stick.

My first thought was to be a smart bellybutton and ask if you were dressed as a sheep when posting this topic? Because the answer to that question may have a large impact on the answers given..:D


 Now the answer to the actual question is X-52 throttle and stick mounted to the arms of my chair, keyboard in my lap and mouse on my keyboard tray.

I got an old office chair with the wheels locked and sturdy arms.
I duct taped my throttle on the left arm and stick on right. My pedals are on the floor under the desk. When I am not flying I prefer spooning.:t

i have an old desk chair that i welded a metal arm to with a hinge that comes up between my crotch i zip tie my stick to this when im playing so its in my gut and right in front of me. my throttle is mounted on a side table on my left. i hang my earphones on an old iv fluid rack i got at a junk yard.
my keyboard is slid up under the desk unless im typing something. havemt got the pedals yet but its comfortable flying like that for me.
wanted to get me an old front seat out of a cadilac and mount it up so i could have some padding for my rear.

oh and position.... lol any one that gives me advantage, escape route and a good view of the fight.
20k lmao
