It's an Awesome video Bro, nice to meet you , I'm also with "Quadriplegie injury C5'" and living in Germany. I have The Same "F5vs" Wheelchair ! So glad to Share Ideas with ....... my best Regards, Keep fighting Bro .
I see you have to adjust the seating once you come down from a stand. Instead of adjusting the back and seat height individually you could pre-set one of the memory functions, such as M1, M2 or M3 to be your standard drive position and go to and use "M1" to move the chair back to the pre set position. You will need to go through the setup but can be relatively easily. CMS have a good video on how to set the memory functions
It took national seating and mobility forever to program it due to me being so tall. We just never got around to programming the downward function. I don’t know much about it myself, but I will definitely look into CMS and their videos! Thank you very much. I really appreciate it!
@@flywithty1 almost 5 years now and it's still holding up strong just a few things had to be replaced recently I just got my ics switch panel replaced the cable finally wore through from my swing away and I was having issues with the toggles and decided to try the push button one and I don't have as many fatigue and spasms in my wrist and forearm now 🙂
Ty, I have had my F5 standing option since 08/21. You look like you have had a better fitting to your chair than I received. I even had the Permobile rep come out to see what the problems are. I was wondering what part of the States your rep services. Mine is out of Dallas. I really don't think he had enough training on setting up the SO. The DME company rep acknowledged that he had not received enough. It's sad. We paid all that money for elevate and standing. I have maybe used the standing option 5 times, and not for very long, either. ☹️
I honestly don’t use the standing feature that much either, other than just to apply some weight on my legs every now and then. Fortunately, man was free with insurance. I know Kentucky is one of the only state that provides the standing feature with elevate for free. I technically have two power chair, ramps, and one of them is wonderful and the other never responds. I need thigh guys and a new seat cushion right now.😂
@@neurologiccure6732 It’s a more firm cushion, but still has the Roho air cushion in the butt area. It should help with transfers and being more stabilized. I am the only one who has hated the Roho cushion so far I believe.🤣
did the insurance cover the lights on the chair ? nice chair btw! I've never had lights on my chair idk if they are really new I haven't gotten a new chair in like 6 or 5 years lol
The chair is brand new as of last year, so that could be why. I have Kentucky Medicaid and supplemental for my insurance, apparently Kentucky is one of the few states that will cover the standing frame option for free.
For Permobil if you get a chair with four seat functions (seat lift, tilt, recline, elevating legs) you can get the light package for FREE but your DME needs to check the box on the form. I have the F5 (non-VS) with all seat functions but no standing and it’s a great chair
Great chair great video.
Awesome chair! If my brother, was here (he was a C7) he would’ve loved to see this and have it…thanks for sharing this hope your doing great!

The carbon fiber looks awesome I wish they had that color option available when I ordered my f3 but it wasn't available yet
They told me that no one ever picks it! I thought it was one of the best looking. How long have you had your F3?

@@flywithty1 thanks for responding, Ty. Enjoyed the video!
@@flywithty1 what cushion did you decide to get for the next one if you don't mind me asking?

What happened to your other TH-cam channel
Sadly we broke up, we where still friends, but she ghosted me randomly a year ago. I never heard from her since.
