VR helmet use in YS
Just a question about VR.
Does anyone have an Oculus or something similar laying around, and would it work in the 3D world of YS?
If we could get this to work it would be really really fun IMHO.
(... and we'll have to work on cockpit details a bit more in our visual models )

With it I'll probably re-appropriate my tv that I use as a monitor entirely and just use the headset. Touch Typing skill increased to level 99.

Re: VR helmet use in YS
With the helmet you can't find the keys on the key board, and there are no 'touchable' items in our cockpits yet.
(that is: the stick and throttle react to the movement of the plane, not the other way around.)
So, with a VR helmet, we would have to have full throttle and stick controllability to avoid having to take off the helmet to lower your flaps for instance.
Possible solutions?
