Title: Legal Eagle XL I-69 Seat Update.
Post by: Shay King on August 18, 2026, 09:59:12 AM

Hi Guys, I tried the seat for the first time today. I think I have enough clearance from the elevator cable beneath. It’s more reclined than I realised and the headroom is better than I expected. It is comfortable, although when I pull the stick fully back it crushes my crotch.
It’s a case of lots of headroom but not so much ballroom.

Can you adjust the elevator cable so the stick neutral is further forward?  You'll only need so much (25 deg?) up elevator.

Yeah, thanks Brock, I think that’ll work alright.
