Poll/question about aircraft scale in VR

Postby mobiusfix » Fri Nov 02, 2018 10:47 am

Does anyone else here feel like different planes are on different scales in VR? Not just in FSS, but in XP, FSX, etc. To me, certain planes feel perfectly to scale (typically Skyhawk and Baron) while others make me feel like an infant without a child safety harness (usually the helos). In FSS, the CH-47 seats feel huge.

Me too. In FSX Dan had provided a couple of switches for controlling , I think he called it world view? Basically an adjustment of scale.

We're adding this feature to the sim. Be curious on everyone's thoughts though, so maybe we can add some sane per-aircraft defaults :)

The FFS aircraft should be pretty close to actual scale though. I remember with certain FSX aircraft/add-ons scale is just completely wacked. Like off by 10x or more :o

Yes, FFS does seem more consistent, but not perfect. The 717 definitely feels off. On the ground, the horizon is only visible out the side windows unless I artificially raise my view.
