Wanted to give you some good news, like "yeah VR is great, i love it and no motion sickness, having great flights".

But back to reality, package got "lost" during transport... waiting for money refound and I'll place another order (adding some money cause prices raised).

Update: finally got my hands on it!

Just had a first brief flight starting from the runway, circuit, landing.

Still have to set graphics and so on, but I really felt like I was there! Turning my head to check where is the runway, seeing runway becoming closer and bigger on approach, understanding distances, everything felt "slower", like in a real one. Smoothest landing ever. I felt absolutely fine.

Then I touched the brakes at hold short line exiting the runway... That very moment, something in my brain triggered bad... Better i go breath some fresh air outside. 🤣

P.S.

Most difficult part, it looks like to be "muscle memory", my hands were going to search for throttles and switches I've seen in VR, not the real phisical ones i have in front of me in reality, or the mouse. During the flight it's been the only moments i felt something strange, i see a thing, but it's not there.

Welcome to the VR world 😄

it's going to take a little bit of training to get really comfortable with the controls, just like not getting sick 😉

But I guess you already get the feeling of it. Now comes the phase where you will re-discover all of the planes in your hangar as if you had never used them before. Same goes for all the places you used to fly around. Everything will look different. That was one of my favorite parts of the VR experience, personalty.
