Hi,

Well, today I flew Condor 2 in VR using Oculus Rift. Wow!!! I'm surprised at how much "being immersed" in the environment makes you feel like you're sitting in the glider. I zoomed and landed at the Nephi, Utah airport and felt like I was there. Very cool!

I think young glider pilots especially will love the VR functionality of Condor 2. Anyone learning to fly gliders will find it much easier to land that fly aerotow too.

Note: I sell and support Condor 2. I don't have any plans to sell Oculus Rift.

Good Soaring,

I don't know much yet about the Oculus Rift or HTC Vive. Which one do experts recommend? What is "Revive"?

The idea of being able to look around while flying is very cool. I can't wait to try it!!!

Good Soaring,
