I neeed Cockpit glider blueprint to build a Simulation cockpit

Post by pckormic » Tue Jan 08, 2019 8:07 pm

Hi everybody

As I said in the subjet headlines, I am trying to build a simulation glider cockpit, in the same position adopted in a modern single seat fiberglass sailplane, (DG 300, Cirrus, Speed Astir...) or any glider with similar characteristics.

I have surfed in the Web trying to get any cockpit blueprints, or any kind of cockpit measurements, with no success.

What I need is any information that helps me to place the chair with the right angles, the rudder pedals at the right height and distance from the hips, and so on.

So please, If anyboy could give me any information I would be very gratefull.

I promise to put in this forum the pictures of the Cockpit once I had finished.

Thankyou.

Here you have the Antares cockpit with a man and a woman figure included. You can defer other measures from there

I believe the rudder pedals are 210mm from pivot to tip for scaling purposes

Can developers share/sale some 3D model of cockpits, for builders? It would be easier to build. Ventus3 for example. tnx
