We all have simulators.
Do you sit or stand when flying a simulator?
I sit mostly in my comfy chair, but when I have tried standing I think I can fly better.
Just wondering what everyone else thinks/does? :confused:

I sit on my lazy bum, but stand while flying my real heli. :)

I should probably stand for habit, but don't. Maybe if I had a bigger moniter, but it is wee....

I sit, but I use a neckstrap and try to not sit back in the chair. I notice the difference if I just kick back verses being more attentive.

That is basically what I am getting at here!
I sit back in my recliner (I pushed my office chair to the side weeks ago :D ) and fly away.
It is not really relaxation to stand. I am a lot more focused while standing.
I do feel that it helps to stand while flying the sim though. So everyone give it a try!

I usually sit on the floor, and run the sim on my big screen TV in the living room :cool:.
When I'm sitting, the view feels more like the view I see when I'm actually flying. If I stand, then I'm kinda 'looking down' at the heli, which feels weird to me.
