Accellerate the chair tilts up. Brake the chair tilts down.
The key is to fill the entire field of view to block out the 'horizon'. |
I was joking. Yes, I picked up the 'g-force' motion right away. It also tilts left when you turn right, all of which simulates Gallileo's rule of inertia and Newton's Third Law of Motion. With a flight sim chair it would have to be programmed to do the opposite - tilt in the direction of travel, as that's what pilots do to offset that very effect. Even inverted pilots in combat maintain positive G - most of the time.
