Too close for my liking too, but he seems to know what he's doing. He's been using "The-Chair" for a good few years now going by his other videos.

As well as what was mentioned above, that's all good for tail in, but wrong for nose in

That would be more fun if flying FPV with a big screen in front of you.

Yes, aside from the too close part, imagine that for FPV, with VR goggles, and head tracking.

That must surely be his aim, though I haven't investigated any further to check. You could get used to nose in just the same, but it would kind of defeat the purpose of the chair.

You can buy plans to build one. I would have to assume that some guidance would also be given on what electronics to buy, and how to wire it all up.
