Everyone has different preferences of course, but for me, as a G2 owner, the Crystal Light seems to answer everything I wished for in the Pimax feedback thread. Just a pure PCVR headset - A simpler, lighter, less expensive version of the Crystal, without a battery, no DFR and 60Hz. With the added bonus of bigger sweet spot, better lenses, better clarity, wider FOV, FFR 2.0, ability to run at G2 resolution upscaled and no Windows MR. On paper at least it seems like the perfect sub $1,000 dollar replacement that G2 owners have been waiting for. I hope it lives up to expectations.

Sorry for being so late responding and thanks for checking. Did you have the pilot body enabled when you tested? I noticed whilst double checking that it's only when the pilot body is enabled that the seat doesn't move. If it's not enabled the seat moves fine. And, if the seat is adjusted and then the pilot body is re-enabled, the seat position doesn't stay where you moved it, it jumps back to the default position. I don't know if this a bug or as intended but all other aircraft that I tested, the seat moves with the pilot body enabled.

Wow! It's looking like a great update, thank you. Do I even see Petra in there modelled?

Ryu1940 is also experiencing, I believe, most of his tracks crashing. He only posts the ones that work. I had one ECW replay track work the other day but the vast majority are still crashing. The one track I had work was when the server was relatively sparsely populated - about 30 odd people. I know BIGNEWY responded back in January but it would be nice to know whether this is something ED is looking at and if they know what the issue is? Can they confirm whether they know it's definitely a multi-player scripting issue? And if so, is there a fix that they're working on their side, or is there something that needs to be done by those running the servers, or something that can be changed on the user side? It's pretty frustrating not having your tracks work after a good multi-player session.

Great! Thank you.

Is this an acknowledged bug? Are there plans to fix it? It's not as shown in the videos above of the real thing, or like the M2000 radar, it's definitely moving with your head in VR. I was disappointed to see it wasn't fixed in the latest patch.

Interesting to hear that the rotaries are more precise as axis, I might try it. Btw, I have the two buttons and the mode selector knob on the base bound in DCS, it doesn't cause any problems.

Yes, I thought there'd be something dodgy about them. Cheers.

I keep seeing on the Amazon US store some 7900XTX graphics cards for sale at much reduced prices. For example $580 for a Sapphire 7900XTX. That's a big reduction on the approx. $1,000 mark that you usually see them for. The lowest I can usually find is $926 for an XFX Speedster. The only issue is they are not sold or shipped from Amazon, like the other more regularly priced cards, they have Chinese store names. The cards will disappear from sale for a few days and then reappear under a different Chinese store name. This seems a bit dubious to me, so I'm wondering, has anyone actually bought one of these cards without any issue? They look amazingly good value comparably, if legit. My feeling is, if something looks too good to be true, it usually is.

I posted this in the VR section. I'm not saying this is the problem but it might be worth checking. It might help some people.

I'm running the latest version 63.0.0.216.361 and my Quest 2 works fine. One thing I have noticed though, if I try to run with the hand tracking option set in the DCS VR tab then it won't load at all, it just crashes to desktop. Only if I have the "TRACKERS" option selected. It's ok if I have the Controllers option ticked. Maybe check that setting if you're finding yours won't load. (If you can't get it to load to check the setting, launch it in 2D using the --force_disable_VR option in your desktop shortcut properties:

Try this: Right click on the DCS desktop icon, go to Properties and in the Target box add the text: --force_disable_VR after the .exe. For example: ...\bin-mt\DCS.exe" --force_disable_VR

I have the same throttle setup and mount. I'm just curious, how did you mount the STEM module to the UCM? I ended up using a couple of the supplied m3 screws screwed into two of the holes on the STEM back plate. I couldn't get all four holes on the back of the STEM to line up with the slots in the UCM but it seems secure enough.

I've just purchased a couple of VKB UCM desk mounts, which I have clamped to my flight stand, but I'm considering going back to a desk mounted setup. The problem is the last time I used desk mounts on my IKEA table they damaged the underside. So I'm thinking of replacing the top with something more solid. Does anyone know of a good recommendation, say from IKEA or Amazon? I've looked at a few but the descriptions often seem a bit vague on exactly what they're made from or how dense they are. Thanks.

Have you checked the axis bindings for both the pilot and co-pilot? I had an issue where I had my throttle bound to the collective for the pilot but whenever I moved it, it was also moving the pilot cyclic. It Turns out the game had also bound my throttle to the co-pilot's cyclic. Once I'd cleared that binding it was fine.
