I can't imagine a better flight sim experience with current tech

1) DCS World UH-1H flying in Persian Gulf

2) VKB MCG Pro with extension

3) Oculus Rift VR

4) PC that can run this at decent frame rate 45/90 fps.

 

The only thing that could be better would be solid 90 fps with resolution equivalent to using 2D 4K display and maxed out graphics quality.

 

I have been flying the UH-1H since the original early release date. I know a certain part of my flying ability comes from all the hours I have flown. But my ability to circle a ship, land on its deck at will, effortlessly transition to backwards flight in front of the ship with zero relative motion while circling around... all that comes from a stick that has no problems allowing me to make very small corrections even near the center and a VR headset with 1:1 tracking, wide FOV in both the vertical and horizontal, and the resulting immersive sense of relative motion via peripheral vision.

 

Having started my virtual flying with the Combat game cartridge on the Atari 2600 flying jets and biplanes in blocky lo-res 2d, I am overwhelmed at how far the consumer grade tech has come!
