Dude you single handedly massively improved my MSFS experience by sharing these! Instant sub!!

[@vrsimpilot]

I am so glad this helped!!! And thanks for the sub! Maybe catch you on a live stream one day!! Thanks again!

[@imgrootsimulations8787]

Thank you so much for sharing this info! I’m still new to VR and I absolutely love it! Can’t believe it took me so long to go to VR

[@vrsimpilot]

I'm so happy you are getting good results out of VR!!! It is so amazing and when somebody tells me they are really enjoying it... that just makes me so happy!! Thanks!

[@Macbrowndog]

Thanks for this update... I have purchased the All In One Panel and it works great

[@vrsimpilot]

I'm glad you like the update video and I am happy that you got this tablet!! It works great and will help with your VR workload

[@Elitestitan123]

Wow great updates... Thanks dude 😎

[@vrsimpilot]

Thanks!!! Yeah, the updates to the tablet and to VSR are really incredible!

[@rodolphof.godoyjr.1735]

Thank you so much for sharing this info!

[@vrsimpilot]

My pleasure! Hope it helped !

[@ThomasGrillo]

Very cool! Not sure I'll be able to see the tablet, unless it can go bigger than what you demonstrated, as I'm legally blind. Had been wondering how I'd use the flight planner and VATSim stuff in VR. Thanks for sharing this. :)

[@daveyoung2056]

Amazing, have you made a install video?

[@markm75]

I tried using the all in one tablets vnc to be able to play back a youtube video on the same pc on a second screen (while in VR), but the second screen was blank mostly, any luck with vnc ? Also i tried fsdesktop to stream a youtube video in vr but it really killed the fps for me?

[@zowikipodrozniki2784]

I have a problem starting the web server. Apache gets up but SQL doesn't want to get up and the tablet doesn't work. Can You help me ?

[@matthewchido8450]

Is there any way to see your simbrief OFP without the tablet addon?

[@kam_a3216]

I only fly in VR mostly in Xplane but I have migrated to MSFS more and more. FBW and Fenix not so much but after haviing just purchased PMDG's 737 it is almost necessary to have all the tools you so thoroughly describe here. I have bought them all , not to mention FS2Crew. Have a bit of work ahead of me to get all of this set up but can't wait to be up and running..huge thanks for all you do - Kam

[@vrsimpilot]

Thanks, Kam!! I was like you - flying only in XPlane... then about a year ago I tired MSFS in VR and since then have been doing the majority of my simming in MSFS.... Totally agree that these tools are almost required for VR flying especially on VATSIM! I have been using FS2Crew, as well... I think it is amazing especially for the PMDG 737s... That FO reduces your workload so much! Thanks again for watching and let me know if you have any questions setting any of this up!

[@Pe11ePD]

How do you use FS2CREW in VR? With FS Desktop?

[@vrsimpilot]

@@Pe11ePD No, FS2Crew works natively in VR. There is a toolbar icon you click. This pops up a VR-ready panel that you interact with. works perfectly. The only thing you have to do outside Vr is interact with the settings screen, but that's not a big deal since you only need to set it up once.

[@Pe11ePD]

@@vrsimpilot so, practically, you set up the flight (briefing, etc) before entering VR, and from that point onward, you can only use those two assigned FS2CREW buttons during flight, via tool or by just pressing the buttons like before in P3D, etc? Thanks!

[@Deltaexe190]

how is your vr so steady and smooth? my meta quest 3 stutters and lags, how do i fix it?

[@IllusiveDude]

how do you install VSR ? I tried installing it but important files like VSR.exe file seem to be missing

[@JZainbear]

Does KZbin play in the web browser?

[@juankaramirez]

Thanks for sharing this tools, one of the reasons I never fly on the Vatsim network in VR is for radio management and taking notes, but this would make it so much better. Does it impact your FPS? Thanks

[@vrsimpilot]

Yes!! These tools are essential in VR for copying clearances and tuning radios easily in VR on VATSIM! It reduces the workload so much. Acts sort of like a virtual FO.... honestly, I could not fly on VATSIM in VR without VSR and this tablet!

[@dv6000islame]

Thanks for sharing your VR knowledge. Getting into VR in MSFS myself using my not-so-gutsy Quest 2. Do you know if the All-in-One tablet can interface with Foreflight and show that inside the tablet, like maybe using the browser window feature?

[@vrsimpilot]

Hi! ForeFlight doesn't interface with the All-In-One Tablet directly. That would be an amazing thing, though. I use FF too and I can't find a good way to get it to work in VR without pulling in the web version of FF (which I really don't like much other than for pre-planning an IFR flight).

[@dv6000islame]

@@vrsimpilot Bummer. Just brainstorming outloud. If a browser doesn't work, could you maybe run it in Windows via a iOS emulator then somehow share that inside the All-in-One? *shrug* Maybe someone will have an idea. I did end up getting All-in-One anyway, and will be trying it out over the coming days. Thanks again.

[@vrsimpilot]

@@dv6000islame The AIO tablet does have an app that allows remote control of the desktop... I think.... I have just never used it since I also use the FSDesktop App to view a browser window in the sim (but this is usually reserved to look at the YT chat window). So that could work.... I just haven't used that particular feature of the AIO

[@JSRRADIO]

any time i use VR to do Flight sim its jagged and jumpy will not be smoth for some reason ntohing i do works

[@CRAZYHORSE19682003]

What are your system specs?

[@bkulber1]

Perfect timing of this video!!! I'm new to Navigraph and it appears I'm one of the unlucky ones that has issues with the scaling of the Navigraph panel in VR (micro sized). Does anyone know if the All-In-One Tablet would fix that since the Navigraph panel would be self contained within the tablet? It's almost worth the $20 to find out.

[@vrsimpilot]

Hi! Try going in to the Navigraph settings (the little gear icon) and then increasing the display scale (I think that's what it's called) to something like 1.4... That's what I use to make the Navigraph 8 interface a bit more readable in VR! (You can do this through the Navigraph app in the tablet or in the Navigraph panel itself)

[@bkulber1]

@@vrsimpilot Thanks, I should've mentioned that's what I use to limp along. But my main problem I have is when I use the mouse wheel to zoom so I can read something, the map/text zoom in for a second, but then get even smaller! Almost like 1x zoom in = 4x zoom out.

[@vrsimpilot]

@@bkulber1 Ah ok.... I don't use the mouse at all in VR. To zoom in , I use the +/- icons on the navigraph display itself.

[@ttommy281]

Ok I have a question, my laptop has an rtx 3060, 16gb ram and an intel core i7 12650 processor. Would it be brought to run msfs vr?

[@vrsimpilot]

Hi! I think you would probably need to lower settings in MSFS considerably and probably tweak OpenXR Toolkit settings a bit to run VR with that GPU/CPU combo.

[@1spdpd]

What VR set-up are you using? I like that pointer thingy!

[@vrsimpilot]

Hi! I'm using the quest 2... yeah the laser pointer thingy sort of becomes second nature after you get used to it 🤣

[@pmadsea077]

Do you happen to know if the All in One panel works in X Plane 11? I’ve looked at their website but there is no FAQ section and it looks like it is only compatible with MSFS.

[@vrsimpilot]

Hi! It does not. It is an MSFS product. For X-Plane, I used to use Avitab which is a free tablet. It does many of the things the AIO tablet does.

[@pmadsea077]

@@vrsimpilot thank you very much for your response. I use Avitab as well. I wish it had the Navigraph Charts app like MSFS does, as opposed to the more stripped down version in Avitab. Cheers.

[@vrsimpilot]

@@pmadsea077 True. The Avitab integration is good, but not near as good as the integration in MSFS with the AIO

[@pastuh]

Today is the first day.

[@xenaandzenafromsanbernadin3807]

I can't recommend FSdesktop in it's current state as it's too laggy to be of any use. I regret buying a license. On the other hand, the all in one tablet is awesome and certainly worth the price to have.

[@hrbeta]

I agree.

[@pilotedgeATC]

Hope you give us a try on your next flight! You don’t need to have an app handy since we use all real world frequencies. Just connect to our network at the beginning of your flight then you’re all set and we’ll take care of the rest 😉

[@vrsimpilot]

Thanks! I will have to look into this. I have never connected to PE before, but have heard great things! I'm on the East Coast and fly a lot of Eastern-USA routes, so will check on the coverage. Thanks again!

[@TheTuckster123]

Does this have or planned to have the feature that OpenKneeboard has where you can add a cheap artist tablet and actually write your clearances etc ??

[@vrsimpilot]

Hi! The tablet has a scratchpad app built in that allows you to write down a clearance (or anything you want)... so no, I don't have plans for fskneeboard. But it does look like a good add-on for those looking for that functionality :)

[@TheTuckster123]

when you say "write", you mean using a mouse or controller, not a "pen" ?? I can't write with my mouse LOL. (and read it later)@@vrsimpilot

[@TBMPilot736]

What about its (all in one tablet) hit on fps in vr?

[@vrsimpilot]

The tablet itself doesn't cause an FPS hit that I can tell. Some of the apps, like the Navigraph plugin, can cause an FPS hit at first as it loads, but then it stabilizes.

[@pro-peller5552]

I have a pretty important question.. But how do you have your VR display only one screen on your monitor, the default MSFS VR displays two, how did you get it to display only one??

[@vrsimpilot]

Hi! I use the Oculus Mirror to display the rendered VR view in a 2d window that I can capture.

@@vrsimpilot Thanks a lot! Is Oculus Mirror a separate app or is it in the Oculus Files?

Is it possible to use the mouse instead of the virtual controller?

I believe so. I don't use a mouse, but you can usually use a mouse anywhere you can use the VR controller to interact.

Yes, of course, All in One works with mouse.

[@Pilot_In_Command]

I use the tablet too, but I always have to reconnect Navigraph 8 on every flight. Ever had that problem? I must update to the latest version though, it might have solved the issue, or not😅.

[@vrsimpilot]

Try opening the Navigraph 8 panel first.... if you have to log in, do so. Then close it, open the tablet and then use the navigraph app from the tablet. The next time you start the sim, do the same - open the navigraph panel but this time you won't have to log in. Then close navigraph. then open tablet.... so basically every time you want to use navigraph from the tablet from that point forward - open navigraph panel, let it load, close it, then use the tablet. That's what I do and I don't have to log in every time anymore.

[@Pilot_In_Command]

Thanks, I'll try that! 😊 Do you know if I need to have VSR installed for it to work on the tablet or should I uninstall the tool first?

[@vrsimpilot]

@@Pilot_In_Command I believe you need to have VSR installed, configured and have the VSR server running... honestly, I haven't seen any setup instructions updated for the tablet yet (it is very very recently released with the VSR integration) .... but I am pretty sure you will need to have VSR installed and set up properly for it to work.

[@Pilot_In_Command]

Thanks! Hey, have you tried the ATR yet? Can't wait to see you fly it. 😉

[@vrsimpilot]

@@Pilot_In_Command No, not yet! I will pick it up maybe this weekend.... tomorrow will be busy with a work event. I may grab it tomorrow night to test it out in VR and then maybe soon after will be ready for a stream!

[@AndyCYXU]

Can you interact with it by the use of mouse ? I do not use VR controllers, don't like them, Thanks

[@vrsimpilot]

Hi! I believe you can use the mouse just like the VR controller... but I have never tried (I don't have a mouse near my VR setup).... So I can't be 100% sure about that, but usually mouse will work if a VR controller will work. :)

[@flightsimulatordotme]

Yes, of course. All in One works with the mouse.

[@m-alevesquefpv8971]

Could this be controlled by a real tablet?

[@vrsimpilot]

Hi! I don't think so... I think there are ways to use FSDesktop to do that, but I have never tried...
