Hardware Review - Pimax Crystal
This is a virtual reality headset called the Pimax Crystal sent to me by Pimax to provide a review for you. Using the Crystal is my first proper attempt at flying consistently in VR as I didn't use the Reverb G2 I own very much due to it's limitations. Through the process of using the Crystal I had a bit of a learning curve associated with it, so I hope you find my experiences with it helpful.
*Edit 20 April, now there's a cheaper lighter version called Crystal Light. There's a survey you can fill out about this version below if you want to do so.

If you're interested in buying the Crystal you can get it here:

Additionally, if you can't find a better promotion code somewhere else you can use the code "requiem" to get $50 off if you buy it.

Now the Eye tracking justs stops working which means I have to recalibrate, which means leaving game and restarting computer, now my batteries are only lasting an hour. Oh and the little bracket that holds your head strap to the headset will break it's a cheap little piece of plastic, It's like putting a Fiat motor in a Roll Royce, The Fix? Take a hacksaw blade and cut a slit in the actual headset. This is not me folks. I have had this headset since day one. You want to make me happy? Send me a new one.

      No, there's no specific binding for that as manipulating the fuel system isn't what they originally envisioned the gameplay including. Manual control of the fuel system was being developed at one time in the last couple of years but I'm not sure if they've continued working on it.

    • @RequiemsACTL
      @RequiemsACTL 2 місяці тому

      The Mosquito in Il-2 is not modeled correctly which is why I haven't made a video for it. Simply put, the turning tendencies for the Il-2 Mosquito are backwards. After my reports were ignored about it as a beta tester this motivated me to make a video for the DCS Mosquito instead. All of my videos are what I think of as being "sim agnostic" because they're always based on an airplane's real life manuals and performance figures, so if you fly the same airplane in different sims they are still a good reference.

    About the cable pulling the head. My solution is to press the cable between the waist and the back of the chair, and then pull up a little (not too much, just a little). In this way, as long as your waist is not too far away from the chair, the cable allowance can always allow you to turn your neck freely.

    Great review, thank you! But all the fiddly things needed to get this running and keep it running just turn me off. I came to the PC era where we were still fiddling with IRQ jumpers. Never again. Track IR always works I use the same profile for all my sims and it is not hot, sweaty and heavy. Someday the technology will become just as simple as Track IR.

      Thanks Tony, for me coming from a small amount of VR experience getting used to this definitely had a learning curve. Once I had everything sorted out though the experience has become much more streamlined where I can just turn the headset on and start playing, but the hard part is just getting to that point where it's all set up how you like it and that took a long time for me. I'm with you though, by the time VR technology becomes more accessible and cheap enough with excellent all encompassing visuals is when TrackIR will be a backup for the simulations we use.

    Do you know if its possible to spawn into a campaign mission with the engines in a 'cold and dark' state?

      No I don't think it's possible. The taxiing pathway of AI doesn't work well enough to be used in a PWCG campaign I believe...

      That’s a shame. Although I’m sure there’s a fix online I can download to help with this issue. Thanks for the response 👍.
