a small range of side to side movement, so that you can see round the stick to the instrument panel, would be useful. however the range of movement in the mod 6dof is far too extreme, as it would see you bouncing your skull off the sides of the canopy.

i fly with the 6dof mod, but i have limited the side to side movement and only really use the tilt aspect of it with regularity.

on the tempest pov, it would seem that it's less of a head on a stick, more eyeball on a stick, as the straight down view is roughly where the pilot's spine would be. shifting it forward 10cm or so would seem about right. there's a few other planes with similar views. not sure if an arc could be modelled into the viewing angle, to simulate tipping head forward rather than rotating the stick-eyeball view down.
