    • If she can't accept your hobbies (but Im guessing you accept her hobbies and ideas for the house) then you don't have a relationship or a partnership and that doesn't usually lead to good things.

  • Next step is to make the cockpit movable/vibratable so that you can feel the plane. And the step after that is to make it move in every direction so you could feel the Gs. At that point you basically have what real fighterpilots train with :O.

Never seem to get the trim as well. I hate to think I have to buy a $500 hotas to get the same performance. Great video by the way!

  • If only we could line up the virtual hands with the real simpit. That would be a great addition as a reference. They need to be "non active" hands. So no clicking buttons in game with the hands. Now it's still too much "feeling around" because the calibration between real and vr is off. The fact that you gotta remove your headset too often proves that. Did you setup the voiceattack yourself or used a pre-set from somewhere?

  • would be interesting if you could get some sort of hand tracking, like a glove maybe. I've notice when I play vr, if i cant see where my hand is in the environment i have no clue how close or far i am, even though it seems like it should be 2nd nature. Like with buttons and stuff if i can't actually see where my hand is, its rough. If you had a tracking glove to put your hands in vr i feel like certain buttons on like the MFD for example would be easier.
