Pilot Joystick/Throttle Height/Position for VR

[[HJ]-RedRaven]

Does anyone have the best height/position of the in/game pilot's joystick and throttle for sim/VR?

Would like to get a joystick/throttle stand ready before my Rift arrives - my desk is definitely too tall.

You don't have to be that accurate as your brain will compensate and you will think everything is in the correct place.

I used a pair of old Atacama 50cm high speaker stands and they're a pretty close match

Five years ago, someone was kind enough to build this for me. By sheer coincidence, this also puts my HOTAS in exactly the right position to duplicate Elite's pilot's chair.

My CH setup - the flightstick + throttle are similar to the warthog setup in dimensions, probably a bit smaller - is 67cm from the ground.

I center the display so that my shoulders align with the avatars shoulders and that is the sweet spot.

Cool, thanks for the tips everyone!

You know, what we really need for seated experiences is a Lighthouse/Constellation tracked chair, isn't it....
