@@djtaylorutube Do you really notice the distortion or is it a really small area? because I see it a little bit, but I can Imagine it's really small in real scale.
@@Hani_Santa You'll probably read different opinions, I don't notice it but if I want to move my eyes to the side, I can see it but you don't actively seek to find an awkward viewing angle when there's a better one right? For me, the clarity across the field of view is far above my other headsets which are a G2 and an 8KX. Yes the 8KX has the largest FOV but it's not in the same sharpness class as the Aero and it also has to be dialled down to Small FOV for MSFS anyway.
This looks almost unbelievably good... :D It is so crystal clear. I can't wait to finally find out how the Pimax 12K and the Crystal will look, so I can make the final decision on what VR headset to buy to replace my G2. :D
Yes! We await to see if Pimax will deliver or not on the 12K. I'm pleased to see that a lot of the issues with the 8KX are much improved with update 10 and OpenXR toolkit according to those doing the beta. That's a great headset, especially in biplanes, the sense of wide view is excellent and less focus on reading instruments.
@@djtaylorutube The reason I'm very excited about the Crystal is that you can swap the lenses and choose between 140° FOV with the Aeros 35ppd quality, or go with an insane 45ppd quality with the Aeros FOV. Just perfect! Since I mainly fly IFR in msfs, the 45ppd option would be great for that, but when I fly in DCS the wide FOV would be the way to go. And built in tracking and sound and all the extra features. I just can't wait to find out how good it is. And even if its bad, I'll just go with the Aero
Not that you'd need them for taking footage, but yes, it is quite a bit of work since you have to set up each plane separately, contrary to MSFS doing it with a universal set of bindings. Any footage is appreciated! Thank you good Sir! :)
@@william7576 No, why would I refund a VR headset for low FPS? That could hardly be the headset's fault, rather GPU too weak or game not properly optimized? I still have my aero and am pretty happy with it, the only thing that I might replace it with is Valve Deckard if that ever shows up.
Haha, yeah I have to let the AI pilot fly when I do these except he's not very "terrain aware". Same happened on the video at Lukla, went in a straight line right into the mountain side opposite, despite both flights having a flight plan with a turn immediately after departure.
@@djtaylorutube Sorry the quality is actually amazing I was showing this video to my friends at school and they commented this. I only have the reverb g2 and it looks amazing to me I just want to try that headset out so bad.
@@KurtisandHurdle ah now I understand :) It's expensive, it's down to the individual as to whether that equates to being worth it and you've still got a great headset with the G2. :)
Basically as good as real life.
Stop teasing me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's amazing dude! It's also smooth, this is truly next gen.
It's pretty good yes, I'm happy with it :)

@@djtaylorutube thnks David, wow that's sound good. I will probably buy the Varjo when it's available!
@@Hani_Santa It's not available in your country yet?

Thise lens videos are stunning, with a funny ending on this one.
Yeah, the flight plan showed a left turn, I really thought the AI pilot was going to make it while I was busy holding the camera :)
Excellent footage David.
haha thanks Steve, it was the AI pilot that crashed, really it was.
@@djtaylorutube A likely story 😁
Omg this looks stunning, can't get enough of these! Can you make some more please? Makes waiting for my own Aero a bit easier...
Sure any requests? I've tried night but it's quite a challenge with exposure for the camera so doesn't really work well.
@@djtaylorutube DCS, Alyx or Lone Echo would be nice please, all of those should be able to do the potential of this HMD justice!
@@mhe0815 Ok, I might do a bit of Alyx because i'm playing that anyway. DCS isn't something that i've set controls up for though. :)

I'm sold, just don't have the 💰
What camera /method are you using to record through the VR lens?
Hi, this is just holding a 4K action camera in about the right spot. :)
This is looking very nice.
What GPU are you using and what VR resolution is that, high?
i9-10850K with an RTX 3090. Resolution is Varjo 35 ppd (default) and FS 100 render resolution.
What graphics card if you don't mind me asking. I have a rx 5700 and would like to know if perf would be similar
this his a 3090, AMD cards are not supported as they do not support the compression algorithm required.
@@djtaylorutube what? Do you know when they will support it? Cause that is depressing. My card is great for vr
@@Deathbatman You'd need to ask AMD when they'll offer the compression method. It's not a Varjo thing.
@@djtaylorutube oh
PC VR FUTURE!!!- REAL VR !!! :D :D :D
not all systems where working and the mountain you need to fly over it not in to it ;-)
That was the AI pilot flying, needs a bug report filling I think! :)
lol jesus- you have a little work to do there mate. Wont be catching your airline ! Fuck

hum ... it is way too jerky for VR...
It's really not :) I hope you're not referring to the part where the memory card screwed up?
Bad
That's a bit vague, can you expand on "bad"? What's bad exactly? :)
