Interesting solutions for cockpit owners here.
I dont have a cockpit as such, but i have two F16 Thrustmaster MFD (though only the frames with buttons -no screens) and an A-10 UFD which I also plan to use. And of course an Hotas solution, Thrustmaster Warthog.
I use a Pico 4, but I don’t want to cut into it because I’m using it for other games too. But fortunately I can just double-tap on the side of the headset and it instantly switches to a color passthrough view from the two front cameras. It is not perfect of course, certainly not 1:1 with what I see while playing, but well enough to press whatever I need to press if my muscle memory isn’t up to it. And then I quickly double tap the headset again, and the passthrough disappears and I’m back into the game. Takes a second.
For people with real cockpits I understand the need to do a more dramatic solution to get the most of both worlds. But this was just a tip to those with Pico 4. The Quest 2 passthrough is of less quality so I didn’t bother when I used that. But for Pico 4 - the color passthrough works
