I fail to see how reaching for a hand controller would be quicker, easier or more precise.... Same everything is mapped to my HOTAS, I even have unused buttons leftover. Gotta love the HOTAS. All of my HMD's hand controllers are somewhere collecting dust. I never used any of them for simming.

I'm finding in VR with the Thrustmaster Warthog, I'm using the mouse more and more for many clickable cockpit functions and less of my button boxes. If this is supported in MSFS VR, this may be a required purchase. Edited December 11, 20205 yr by Lobaeux

In Aerofly fs2 you could choose to see a split partition on the monitor or a merged screen. Sometimes you get to just see one eye.

I’ve also just received the Reverb G2 which is awesome. One thing I cannot believe about the G2 is how much of the FOV is lost due to their magnetic face pad. I need to come up with a mod, lol.

Mine arrives on Monday. That's a shame about lost FOV. They're still saying it compares well though to other headsets. Do you think its not?

December 19, 20205 yr Hi Phil. The G2 is amazing in terms of comfort and sharpness of image. Colours are stunning. No SDE. There is definitely a loss of FOV with their face pad. There are a few mods around which I’m going to try. Keith Sandford.

I hear that replacing the face ring pad with a smaller one and attaching it with Velcro works to increase this FOV

You can guarantee there will be a refresh in q1 offering the same performance in games at an msrp around 1k gbp. If I was interested in 3090 performance I would 100% (if they were available) sit on a 3080 until then and then upgrade and sell the 3080. 3090 is an inbetweener, designed to gouge. Don’t support the gouging with your hard earned money. Force them to bring the prices back down to reasonable levels. Back when the top end ultra gpus cost less than 1k.
