I have a Pico 4. Its FOV is amazing. Nearly all screen is “sweet spot”. Moreover, the periphery is clearer than the center because it has denser pixels. However, I cannot say the overall picture is clear. I cannot read MFDs easily. But I must say that I didn’t have a chance to try it with Virtual Desktop. I only used it with its Streaming Assistant. The people who use it with Virtual Desktop claim it is clear though.I just ordered a Pico4 30 minutes ago
I’m sure they will suit you.
Remember that it is highly recommended to use VIRTUALDESKTOP.
But you have to buy it through the PICO shop, be aware that if you buy it from the Steam website, that version will not work for you.

@I-Hawk Please comment on your impressions of Pico 4 as soon as possible, I am interested in buying it. greetings mate

@I-Hawk alongside those excellent technical implementation goals, are there any plans to revisit the cockpit model now we’ve gone VR? There are a few dubious areas I suspect, eg not being able to see the speed brake indicator without ducking down a bit, the MFDs almost touching the ankles. I imagine it’s not top of the backlog, as it’s not game breaking.

There’s an open alternative to VirtualDesktop: ALVR:
https://github.com/alvr-org/ALVR/releasesFrom what I’ve heard it got quite good recently, might be worth to take a shot.
BTW That’s the reason I’ll be rather looking for standalone headset in the future: no need to fiddle with drivers which makes much easier to get it work under Linux. -

Thanks, I wasn’t quite clear, sorry. I was referring to the “Look Closer” command which by default is on L and you can bind to a HOTAS key - it will toggle a zoomed in view. So basically you do not need to lean in. If that works in VR too, it should help with hard-to-read MFDs
Yep, that works too. It makes me a bit dizzy though, because your view suddenly changes. So I prefer just leaning in physically to see things up close.

@Xeno Wow! I am so happy to hear something like this exists. I will definitely give it a try as soon as possible. Thank you very much, Xeno.
