Size of cockpits are small compared to real life.

[motoadve 49]

Loving VR but the size of the cockpits and wings when looking to the sides are small, like 75% compared to real size.

Is there a way to increase the size?

The Zlin seats look like the size of my toddlers high chair🤣

glad someone else was brave enough to point it out 🙂

I think they targeted a certain FOV they wanted you to be able to see, but most headsets don't actually display at that FOV, so everything is squeezed down.

Agree it doesn't feel right, it's like 80% scale or something.

I only have this problem with GA prop planes.

The jets feel fine

Its work of developer. The name of this its cockpit scaling. Proportion depends of dvelopping method. Its known issue if it wasnt tested before in VR mode in any simulator.

747 yoke and seats are tiny, but unlike the xplane 747, at least the cabin feels a bit wider

Tiny yokes are quite common in VR, and look ridiculous!

Aerofly FS2 is the only aviation sim I’ve used that allows you to change cockpit size in the menu. It’s a feature all sims should add. Anyone from Asobo listening? 🙂

DCS has it to. You can set it giantly big or dwarfly small from in the menu.

I mentioned this on another thread, so i’m pleased it is getting some attention. The cessna yoke looks baby sized. I guess we should add it as a request on the msfs official forums.

You guys are absolutely right,

I tried several ga aircraft yesterday and I just stopped flying bbecaus the knobs, yoke and screens were so annoyingly small.

I set my ipd to 58 in oculus software and this helps me a lot. Most people say that's not how it should work but for me it does.

I hope we get some slider like in dcs or flyinside. Maybe not so realistic but since  my rift s had limited resolution I need some trick to actually see stuff😯

OK, found a feature request for this - time to do some upvoting https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/feature-request-cockpit-size-and-world-scale-in-vr/338584

I don’t understand you guys. When I switch the camera to the „close“ preset everything looks real scale for me

VR "FOV" scale is very HMD dependant and then take into the IPD of the user as well and you have differing values, MSF needs a World Scale Adjustment.

 

Again something that should've come as standard.

Hi, i can confirm this. Landing in the cessna on an 150 meter wide Runway, looks like landing on a 90 meter wide Runway. Into the front all dimensions looks Fine.
