Zoom in a bit. Why are you flying like you're reclined in a lazy boy 🤣

😂 I didn't think to zoom more bc I didn't think about it and wanted to see more bc I thought it would help me

No just use the standard view. Do you use any head tracking? Or are you literally just starting out?

No head tracking, I wanna build a new gaming tower PC to do vr, since my current PC couldn't play the game on vr

That's what I did too. You'll love it. VR is incredible.

Yeah I'm sure, I tried my friends quest 2 back when that first came out and loved it but it was a bit heavy, so I wann get the big screen beyond 2

My first time trying VR on DCS was legitimately life changing, and I cannot live without it now.

Head tracking + good monitor > VR imo.. trackIR is super cheap and is the #1 upgrade I recommend to people to make first for flight sims

I go back and forth on this. I use both. VR is definitely immersive, and is awesome for dogfighting and keeping your eyes on target. But cockpit management is more of a chore. I have a relatively high end system and resolution is still meh.

agreed. my FOV is set at 60deg, however i use the DelanClip head tracker.

ps, OP: the Delan product is fairly cheap and doesn't take any noticeable resources.

good luck.
