Been seeing a flurry of Fighter Ace videos lately.    Are these new or recycled?

(Being able to get rid of the cockpit panel to see is so cheesy.)

We've found a way to make VR work - it's mouse emulation. Run OpenTrack or similar and map your VR to mouse movements. FA already has mouse pointer view, so once you have VR or TrackIR emulating mouse input, it's done.
