H135 measurements

[Leonhard96L]

-We will organize the measurements of the H135. I will measure in our FTD/FNPT and i also will measure in the real helicopter. -I will check if i can organize some drawings of the cockpit. -I will also make some pictures that you can imagine.

One important point: The seat of the H135 helicopter is moveable. You can move the seat forward and backward. In your NVG Sim there was just the pedal adjustable. Would it maybe make more sense to build a moveable seat instead of movable pedals? Or is this to complex?

Hi Ivan we took the measurment from our H135 Sim: As reference we took the eyepoint which we projected on the Cockpit floor. (Yellow tape) I hope this is ok for you. We took a person with the height of 184cm. The distance between the eyepoint and the cockpitfloor is 104cm. Maybe i can organize also a 3D modell from the H135. I will check that.

Distance from the eyepoint to the middle of the cyclic is 36,6 cm

[Leonhard96L]

Distance from eypoint to the pedal joint: 85,5cm

[Leonhard96L]

Distance from eyepoint to the pedal step: 90cm

[Leonhard96L]

Distance from eyepoint to the joint of the collective: 25,3 cm

[Leonhard96L]

Distance from the middle of the seat to the middle of the collective: 29,3 cm

[Leonhard96L]

Distance from the Cyclic to the slant console: 22,8cm

[Leonhard96L]

Distance from cockpitfloor to seat: approx. 28cm

Thanks! I will forward the measurements including the comments to Stephen and will let you know here if there are any questions from his side. I will also discuss the topic of adjustable pedals vs. an adjustable seat.

I discussed this with Stephen. For the "new" Bruner pedals in the NVG simulator, it is actually easier to build it such that the seat is adjustable. Can you confirm that this is what you want? If so, than I will ask Stephen to include a movable seat in the design of the platform instead of movable pedals.

Yes i will ask Michael Mayrhofer and give you the answer a.s.a.p!

Hey Ivan, i talked with Michael. He said adjustable seat instead of adjustable pedals is aproved!

That's great, I'll tell Stephen!
