VR for Flight-Sims: Before you get in it and spend a lot Money.
You are true, Dogfights (for me) are much more natural and immersive with a VR Headset. Even as an beginner I never had problems to tracking the Bandits. On 2D Screen yes, have Problems .
About me: I use a VR Headset for DCS and IL2. (Oculus DK2, Oculus Qust, HP Reverb G2). I have a relative good Computer (AMD 5600x, 32GB RAM, RTX2070 ,SSD,..and and and). Advice: Inspecially with HP G2 I recommend a better GPU for DCS! Minimum rtx 3070 (no experience with Radeon) to enjoy it. In Addition with some Tricks its playable for me (DCS Shader Mod + AMD VR FSR Mod + 50% Headset Resolution HP G2 + Motion Reprojection)
In the WWII scenario I prefer definitly IL2 because of its performance and clarity in Game! Yes, thats are two worlds!
Even in higher resolution, DCS has a very blury Graphics in distance. Inside the more modern Jets and BVR combat, it is not so important (for me). The Radar works .
For navigating on your Desk
Finding the Keyboard:
I have a illuminated Keyboard and look through the Nosepart out of my Headsets. (For that a remove the Nose-light-protection at the HP G2. I hope you get what I mean). No Problems at all with it.
Controller Tracking:
In DCS you can click inside the Cockpits with mouse or VR Controller (Quest/HP G2). They are fully compatible and works absolut fine for me.
