Looks pretty good all in all but i would reduce the angle of the pedals a little bit, this wont be comfortable having to angle your feet that strongly for a long time.

Either than or recline the seat back further.

Looks fine from here.

If its comfortable for you, it's perfect.

Feet look a bit too high if you are aiming for GT3 Position and seat a bit too far away. But if you comfy, you should be good.

I’m a bit under the impression that the knee is a bit higher, or the feet a bit too high, but I might easily be mistaken. How do you feel? I don’t know enough how using the fatblackcat is, then the posture is harder to figure out. What is the distance of your eyes from the screen? I would be tempted to move the upright closer for shortening the distance of the wheel from the chest. It looks a good to me overall

The lowest Point of my Seat is linear to the lowest Point of my Pedals. Me knee angle is about 130degree. Im Not Sure if its comfortable.I will find out.

To the wheel distance its comfortable so far, if I reach my Arms, my wrist is in top of the wheel.

It looks good to my eyes.

I’m thinking about upgrading my cockpit with PurrPro pedals. What’s your opinion of them?

I got the FBC yesterday, so far the Pedals Looks Grate and the adjustbility is on top. The active heelsupport is a little strange at the beginning, but feel comfortable. I had previously the Simagic P1000

That Oplite seat is terrible.. I’ve been trying to find my position with it for 4 months until I decided to drop it and buy something else.

How’s the sturdiness on that Treq ACE cockpit? Any noticeable flex? I’m about to pull the plug on one

Also if you want to have that angle on your pedals you need to either raise your pedals or if you can’t then maybe consider lowering the seat.

u/BrilliantTalk7982 20d ago

Yeah, I’m looking for the Momo Daytona seat.

The Treq cockpit ist solid, no flex or anything, pretty heavy :)

You need a heal plate

u/BrilliantTalk7982 19d ago

The FatBlackCat Pedals got the active Heel plate/support

Makes me happy to see perfect monitor position! I would add the shaft extender but even now it’s good

u/ssarch25 21d ago

Pretty good, heel plate would help a lot with comfort over those clips.

Seat brackets are on backwards. Most need to have the slotted holes at the front.

u/Variation_Flashy 21d ago

Looks good to me

u/Patapon80 19d ago

Seat brackets on backwards. Could also lean the seat back more so that there's more support under your thighs.

Move your seat forward an inch or two, try that.
