....you spend the 60-70 bucks on a module that you KNOW you're not going to spend more than 10 minutes in and justify it by telling yourself that it is to suport the DCS community!!

You know you're addicted to DCS when...

...Your car naturally pulls to the left when driving straight... and your right inch instinctly moves to trim...

Don't laugh, I did it for real!

Oh - I believe you. I had a similar thing a few years ago after driving home from the airport after one trip away... car started drifting to the left and for a short moment I applied more 'right foot' to get it back to the center. 😆

When you watch 100 hours of a guy hand build every part of a $8,000 DCS cockpit with every button that works like setting in the real plane and 3 Projection cameras and custom 180 screen and not thinking anything is weird when he admits he likes flying in it in VR most of the time unless he is streaming live for us to watch.

A classic, either in DCS or any other sim used in the last 20-25 years 😅 ,

When you're watching sim videos, YT or whatever, and you move your head to pan the view like you were wearing trackIr. Sometimes even in real world videos, not just sim videos 🤣 .
