they would work even better a cubesim mod

First watch and good video,just thought of mounting a steel plate to the base like 8mm or thicker should be e enough to compensate for the spring tension.

Does it come with the metal stand or is that a separate buy?

Very populist and shallow guide. First of all DO NOT BUY any Logitech equipment (or TrackIR or a HOtAS, I'll explain below) to play DCS, you can see just with a little search on Google that they're not quality products and a lot of people have problem with them and again just by searching online for a few minutes you can find better alternatives most of the time for cheaper. Secondly DCS is a simulator, you can clearly use auto start but when you get the hang of it manually starting your airplane is always faster since a lot of people online found shortcuts and time saving tips to start your airplane. Also manually starting your airplane not only will give you the satisfaction, but also will help you understand how the systems of the aircraft works. This way when you encounter a problem you'll have better understanding of how to fix it. Lastly you do not need a HOTAS or a tracking equipment. Even though getting a hotas will definetly improve your experience you can try to play with an Xbox controller too, even just to see if you really want to invest that money on DCS, you might not like the game, you might think a controller is enough or you can buy the HOTAS when you can afford it. It's not a reason to stay away from DCS. You can use your iPhones with FaceID to track your head movements without attaching anything to your headphones or to your monitor. Just get a stand for your iPhone and you can both connect to your PC on WIFi and with USB with open source projects like opentrack and ai track (I use open track on PC and an app called Smart Head Tracking on the App Store). You don't even need to buy parts or maps from DCS shop and given 14 days to try the models and maps you want.

It's an easier choice for those of us who don't have the space for, or interest in building such a big setup.

Would probably fly somewhere super remote up north and just enjoy the view of the beautiful terrain!

@g-locmedia so I spend my time equally between MSFS and DCS. What would you recommend, this Moza or the Brunner yoke, based on feel and experience? Taking price difference out of it. Keep up the great work!!

Looks like it needs spring or Latex tension bands behind the head to relive neck pressure

I love my TPR’s

You could do this and be more immersed for a fraction of the cost by using VR without the expense panels and screens etc. Keep the yoke, pedals and the moveable seat.

I have had several vr headsets in my time and I have no temptation towards pimax. That thing looks like a heavy brick on your head. I just bought a Bigscreen Beyond as well and that thing is just something else. Having something as light as that, or as heavy as a quest 3 is what I’d go for. Pimax needs to look at going for a smaller form factor

I've been using Beam for a while now, and it's pretty damn good. I bought it from the website, but it's since become available in Steam, with regional pricing, so almost half price where I live. Getting things like TrackIR or Tobii here is not easy, most of them are 2nd hand imports, if you're lucky. So Beam, plus a cheap Hikvision webcam... prefect budget system for me.

Guys, what is the best yoke to get for flight sim then. I am a real world pilot and want something that's really good. I don't have the budget for force feedback as that would obviously be the better choice but what would people say was the next best thing ??

Tobii Eye Tracker !!!!! :D

How did you connect the NLR motion platform to the stand? Thanks

Rudders?

@10:20 "I find myself spraying way too much just for the sheer joy of it".....don't we all mate, dont we all....

Schuld i get the Turtle Beach Velocity Flight Deck or the Turtle Beach Velocity Flight stick

have you had a chance to try the apache or any of the helicopters in DCS? i need ffb after trying it once.

This is cheaper than the other controllers for me atm

A really cool VR headset which i use with my Flight Sim is the BigScreen Beyond headset, it's custom moulded, scanned with your iPhone's FaceID. Super lightweight, almost zero fatigue, and the only downside is the POV, but with that weight, and honestly at the price, it's something I could never find elsewhere as a VR enthusiast; this includes the experience I've had with my Vision Pro with ALVR. I love the content, absolutely hooked to your channel! Thank you

You can have this at home as long as you save up all your money and don't get married 😂

Getting reports that msfs24 has vastly improved flight characteristics/physics, very excited to try it out myself

Unboxing videos are so 2010.

Yeah, you're pushing pimax, but they have a terrible record on customer service and other issues. I won't by from them.

How did you get the second screen working with the altitude and speed?

My thoughts, instrument procedures use screens with physical instruments, flying procedures use VR.

I alrrady bought one and i really love the immersion. No more triple screen for me

If I have the stick, should I get the yoke too or go for pedals? I’m a former PC player and builder now on Xbox Series X because I’m getting old and just wants things to be easy and simple. Gaming PC building was just too much management and spending all day on work in front of a desk I like to game on the TV to relax.

Did you compare this solution also with the NeuralNet Tracker from OpenTrack? Very curious if its worth to buy Beam Eye tracker plugin and save 30 dollars.

can you the oedals alone on pc your do you have to have the turtle beach yoke?

Great post. Once mixed reality gets more advanced I feel will encourage me more. Until then, can't beat the touch and feel of the rig......

I have the Quest 3 at the moment. And have had different others as well. I love VR. But as long it is not as Crystal clear and comfortable as pancake screens, I really love my triple screen setup as a backup. When I play in VR I can't play hours in a row. Eye strain etc. So then I hop back to my triple screen setup. But the immersion is of course less than in VR. Especially cockpit games

I would get the Pimax Crystal Light, if they would sell the reviewer version, the QA on the commercial version is really bad.

I really like that stuff but its so software specific, if driver support stops or software no longer supports it, your investment is cooked. I had that happen once, id hesitate to risk that happening again.

oh congrats .. its 2024 and you found out that VR exists for simracing ;D

You should review the crystal super when its released in January. I'm getting my crystal light next week and wondering if i should have waited for the super.

its not, but I'm gonna suffer through its progression lmao

I purchase mine full price, and they are 100% solid for me. Not sure everyone else is experienced..... But these are a must have for my flight sim.

Watched someone on YT using "passthrough" with VR. You can see your controls and even get out of the cockpit and walk around. Wish I remember who it was, but it was an older gentleman. Look it up and see if you can find it. EDIT* Found it, Heritage Flight Simulation from 1 month ago.

I have big triples, but often use the quest 3 with pass through/ Openkneeboard so that I can see my generic controls/that I have purposely designed for use in VR. I find it a game changer, especially with helicopters, but also get eye strain and have comfort issues with long sessions. So big jets IFR long flights =triples and helicopters or short flights sessions VR with MR. I expect as comfort /technology improves I will move completely over to VR with MR.

Im buying it for 66€ and seeing what it does. It looks like its more than enough for me and Im really happy to get into a new world of SIM games since I already do sim driving.

These are terrible......mine broke in 3 months, I got two VKB's for around the same price.......no brainer

Pcl was the worst purchase I have ever made

No, it's never time for this.

That thing looks incredible! I would fly around Ireland in MSFS exploring all of the historical sights and landmarks!

Microsoft killing wmr has left a bad taste in my mouth. A 500 dollar reverb g2 isnt too expensive, but knowing it will become useless when windows 11 forces the 24h2 update has me questioning vr in general. I dont wanna spend another 800 on a pimax for it to possibly become forgotten tech in a few years like my g2. The cheap 300 dollar quest 3s looks more attractive to me. Just my opinion.

I have not tried any of the others listed here, but I truly cannot see them being better than the TPR’s. They are simply phenomenal... Smooth, accurate, quiet, super comfortable and they look terrific.

loved my pimax crystal light , everyone said it's huge but when i recieved it i found it to be not much bigger than my quest 3 . The comfort was better than my quest 3 , the trouble with my pimax was the lenses, no matter how i set the headset i just could not get any clarrity out of it . The issue was i either had to wait 2-3 months for new lenses and loose my chance to return it under the 14 day uk return policy or return it and get my money back . When i tried to return it , well that was a different issue. The company i purchased from told me i couldn't return it as it had been used , my answer was that if i didn't try it how could i find out if it worked or not . I had no end of issues with the company , they didn't even want to abide by UK selling laws . I did eventually manage to get my money back but will never use them again even though i have spent thousands with them . I would love to get another pimax but after reading about the customer service issues and lense problems i will wait and see if anything improves

Pimax overpromises and underdelivers. That is the only consistent thing that they do. I'm extremely disappointed with my Pimax Crystal Light 2 months in.
