sirrah Posted May 31, 2024 Posted May 31, 2024 Is there some way to change the default seat height in our Viper? I find myself lowering the seat a bit, everytime I step in the cockpit. The default seat height is so high, that I can completely see the entire IFF antennas, and as far as I can recall form my time at the RNLAF (as a mechanic, not pilot unfortunately ), that normally wasn't the case.

Mine is set low when I start so I have to raise it. I find that I have to adjust it every single time. No biggie, just like IRL I guess, with pilots being all shapes and sizes now. Maybe it's just our individual setups! DO it or Don't, but don't cry about it. Real men don't cry!
Solution bones1014 Posted June 1, 2024 Solution Posted June 1, 2024 you can set your default camera height. press numpad 5, then use right cntrl+shift 9 or 6 to set raise and lower the camera. Once you have the height you want press right alt+numpad 0 to save it. 1 1

Only for quick training missions (where you start airborne), it would be handy to start at the desired seat height.
