To adjust seat height and side to side etc, thanks

What I do is lean the way I want to adjust the view and press the key for re-centering the VR position. If I want to sit a little more forward in the cockpit, I lean a little backward and press the button to re-center and then sit normally again. I never bothered to see if there are adjustments for that in P3D. As for height, I usually do the same or adjust the height of my office chair that I sit on as I would adjust the seat in a real cockpit.

This is just off the top of my head since I’m not in front of my computer at the moment, so forgive me if it’s not 100% accurate, but should point you in the right direction: 

Shift+backspace = head eye point up

ctrl+backspace= eye point forward 

Ctrl+shift+backspace = left 

ctrl+enter=right 

shift+enter= eye point down 

ctrl+space bar = return to default eye point 

something like that, but those are the key combos. 
 

cheers,

Terry

Anyone know where the keys are listed please?

Are we talking p3d here? If so, I don't think the recenter VR is mapped by default. It's done from the VR drop down menu, but you can map it to any key you like. I think it's "HMD - reset position" or something like that. Just search in Controls in P3D and map to whatever you want.

As for the view itself, I have chaseplane installed so I no longer use the default P3D position controls. If you have chase plane just set all the paramters for the captain's seat in the camera control section to 0 and you're done. Then you can move the viewpoint if you like. I move my view slightly forward but nothing esle.
