StaB/Tomio_VR*** Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 Does the Bubble canopy brings more protection for the pilot ? I mean the headrest which is way much bigger than the one on Anton series which is thinner... Because the plane is 1 km/h faster with the default canopy Thanks
ICDP Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 In real life it was purely to improve pilot visibility because there was more room to look around.
StaB/Tomio_VR*** Posted October 31, 2019 Author Posted October 31, 2019 Well, i never noticed a better visibility in any sim with the bubble canopy ? 2
Danziger Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 Is it really worth losing a whole 1km/h though? 1 2

Only a VR one xD More seriously, if there is a increased rear view ability, this one is marginal Edited October 31, 2019 by StaB/Tomio_VR***

It is a little inconvinient but it's better than not being able to check six. with this "trick" bubble canopys are great! (and mirrors too) 1

OrLoK Posted November 1, 2019 Posted November 1, 2019 (edited) its what I do, but with advancing age comes issues (as I know personally ). Edited November 1, 2019 by OrLoK

I just do this Because if i try to do that, no blood gets to my brain and i blackout. plus my CV1 ribbon cable broke so bad that the IR leds in the back of the unit don't light up anymore. even if inconvenient, my "trick" is much less so than that XD
