Title: Donkey Kong Monitor Mount Angle
Post by: jdbailey1206 on December 06, 2013, 07:49:25 am

Hey everyone.  Just wondered if anyone out there could give me a quick idea at what angle their Donkey Kong monitor is sitting at.  I've read 30° but I feel that isn't correct.  Thanks for the help in advance.

If I took the measurements from this page: http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=30110.0 (http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=30110.0)

And did my trigonometry right, it's about a 35 degree angle. Been a long time since doing some SOHCAHTOA stuff before though so I could be wrong. I don't have an actual machine to measure.

Thank you sir.  I had it at 30 degrees and it just seemed off.
