FPS drop when you are next to a C-130 (VR)

The fps drops significantly when you are near the C-130 and when you look in its direction.(On VR, Pimax Crystal Light)

Same on 2d, old system for me and newer system for friend. 
Best that I can describe it, is that it is in the far to close lod it happens and once "inside the near" it is fine and we did a lot of  close formation. 
This was seen before and after clearing the fxo and metashaders2. Same thing.

Adjust the lod slider in the game settings.

Why not? This will improve your performance.  
 

your other option is to buy a new computer.

Reducing LOD below 1.0 starts to cause some visual issues/quirks.

Because the LOD's seemingly aren't standardised from module to module, things can start to appear incorrectly. Disappearing pylons etc, or some helicopters almost disappearing entirely. It's a bit of a mess.

And if the OP's 5080 is running into this problem, he's only one tier below the fastest GPU money can buy atm. So upgrading the PC might also not work out.

Ideally ED would split up the settings so we could pick and choose which planes/modules we want to be rendered in high quality and which we don't. Or just even separate the detail setting on the module you're flying from all the others. This would help with performance, rather than have them all running on the same setting. But that's been on the wish list for years.
