I put one more click of rear wing on from the default, that's all.

I googled 'F1 POV' to try and get an idea and this video came up which is pretty cool as it's at the same track, albeit a different layout [youtube]1go3dL2eSYU[/youtube] Logged Wally Administrator Hero Member Posts: 11033 Karma: 152 AC Admin Re: Sep 22 fun run: Formula Renault 3.5 at Paul Ricard « Reply #25 on: September 21, 2015, 10:28:22 PM » That's pretty cool, and gives a good idea of the POV, doesn't it. Mine looks pretty close to that. I could lift my POV a fraction too, but it's not far off.

Look at Di Grassi's mirrors: the camera is quite a bit too high, so that the mirrors show (us) only the sidepods! Indeed, from any picture I can get, we should have our eyes lined up with the mirrors an the top of the 90° turned wheel.

I was watching another video yesterday or Martin Brundle in the Ferrari F1 car and he said pretty much all he could see in the mirror was red Logged grat Hero Member Posts: 1174 Karma: 16 Re: Sep 22 fun run: Formula Renault 3.5 at Paul Ricard « Reply #28 on: September 22, 2015, 10:20:02 AM » Yeah, I remember that video. But we also read many times that in the mirror you can see the rear tyres and the rear wing. Of course you cannot see very well, but surely you see "behind" and not "below" Logged marty Hero Member Posts: 3747 Karma: -63 Re: Sep 22 fun run: Formula Renault 3.5 at Paul Ricard « Reply #29 on: September 22, 2015, 11:04:18 AM » Quote from: grat on September 22, 2015, 08:00:58 AMI really like what he did, but for realism we should be quite a bit lower than that.

Indeed, from any picture I can get, we should have our eyes lined up with the mirrors an the top of the 90° turned wheel.Actually the way Luca did that is pretty nuts in a way to make sure the lens was at eye level. He put a gopro covering one of his eyes so the lens height matches his eyeline. The reason why the mirrors dont line up correctly is simply because the camera is attached outside his helmet and so the lens is a fair way ahead of his eyes. This means the angle from camera lens to mirror will be steeper and so it wont match what he sees in mirrors even though the height matches near perfectly.
