Anyway to perminantly adjust the Fenix seat position?

Hi All,

I only last week learnt that the pilot and copilot chairs slide backwards...love your work @Aamir. Does anybody know if there is a way for the position to remain permanent? Its annoying having to slide it back at the start of every flight.

 

Cheers

No, but why do you want to do this anyway? If it's about how close you sit to the PFD, you can zoom in/out a bit and just save this as your new default view (CTRL+F10 by default). This will remain permanent for every flight with the aircraft.

I do this because I have a triple monitor setup and the best viewing distance/zoom ration puts my head just above the seat...so being able to move the seat back and thus removing it from my peripheral vision is something I do every flight. Thats why I want to do it...

Alright, but as said, not possible. How about translating forward (from your above-the-seat-position) and zooming out a bit? Should give roughly the same view but with the actual seat behind you.

Yeah its a balancing act about what looks best on the 50" TVs...fish eye, and lining up the three screens. 

Adjusting the seat position isn't a problem and its far better to do that than compromise on the view.

Sounds like something a pilot does before each  flight, adjust the seat😉

 

 

 

"Page-UP"--"Page-Down"--Arrow keys up,dn.left,right... to adjust the view that suits me, Then I hold down CTRL+ALT hit Top keyboard num. key "0" (or whatever),,,when I hit that key on the "NUM Pad" I have my saved seat position. I do this for all my instrument views (num 0-9) separate for all aircraft..
