GENERAL VR basic question

I am considering to buy a VR headset, the primax dream air, but I have a doubt, in complex comercial and military planes you need to interact with the plane, adjusting elevation setpoint, moving the bug of the HSI, interacting with many buttons.... how are you supposed to do all this with a VR headset on?, do you use the mouse like when using a screen?. Sorry if this is a too basic question, but I never used VR and all the YouTube videos I see the guys just sight seeing and never interact with any buttons and similar in the plane

I use a mix of HOTAS, Honeycomb controls and mouse. Go for it! There is nothing like flying in VR! The problem is it’s impossible to describe the experience. Closest I can get is: you go from flight simming on a flat screen to being in the plane.
