This is great. Enjoy your father / son relationship and each other. I had just built my dad (retired USAF F-16 mechanic) a gaming PC and he was getting used to the Viper so we could do exactly this. Cancer came and took him very quickly, we never got the chance to fly together. Thank you for this video and sharing with me what might have been. :)
Damn, how cool! My Dad used to be an armourer in the RAF during the 80's. Was stationed in West Germany during the height of the cold war and really developed my love for combat Sims with an introduction to Falcon 4.0 as a kid. The man once spent an hour descrbing to me the inner workings of the Sidewinder :)
I grew up playing Falcon 3 and Falcon 4, wish my son could play with me but he is busy with stupid Robolox, cherish every minute you spend with your folks!
Quality time together! You guys are really sync'd up! My 10 year-old is flying in DCS with me now. He's got the F-14 and loves doing 1 on 1 dogfights against me.
That's so cool man!❤ my dad was never interested in doing anything with me past my teens. I know everybody's saying it but you really are a lucky guy. Take lots of pictures too... in 20 years you'll be glad you did. ✌️ 🤗 Awesome flying by the way. I'm getting my pilot's license and at about 30 some hours so it's super close to solo time. DCS is pretty intense people don't realize how hard it is.
That's so cool, good luck with your PPL! My goal is to get my Glider license in a year or two. Yeah DCS is definietly harder than it looks! Real easy to fly around and drop bombs, but very challenging to fly well (flying smooth, hitting the numbers, being in the right place at the right time etc).
That's pretty awesome. I did Falcon 3 a million years ago. I did have the pleasure of flying a bit with a couple sons. I'm Hornet guy, but son wanted the Viper. So, I got the Viper so we could fly together.
Great stuff men, love that dad and son fly DCS World as wingmen. I've been flying with my older brother Sixxpack since IL-2 Forgotten Battles using Hyper Lobby. We've come along way! Cheers.
Really cool video and awesome that you can share DCS with your dad. I am probably about his age lol. I flew Falcon 3 & 4 back in the day and love DCS now!
if my ultimate life goal was a video... i usually dont do many things with my dad, like in the pc, but sometimes he comes to me saying that we should make a flight some day. now, i can do a flight with him but usually its very lame cause its only 1 screen and 1 joystick and stuff. sometimes i dream about having a full cockpit with 2 seats, reserved both for me and for the special guy that brought me into this world. Be with the people you love always, cause theres gonna be a time when they arent around here anymore.
I wish I could get my boys into this. I would love to play PvP with them. They're into the Call of Duty shooter type games and could care less about flight simming. They watch me and say "cool" and I have gotten them set up to fly, which they lose interest in 10 minutes. They're like "okay dad...I have taken off and I am on course. Now what do I do? What? You mean I just sit here and do nothing for the next 100 miles? Uh...I think I have had enough..."
Haha! I can relate! My dad tried to get me more into aviation when I was a kid, but I just wasn’t that interested… I guess my mindset was not in the “correct” place at the time. Maybe things change for them as well. Good luck and thanks for watching!
That's brilliant that the two of you still "play" together like this, it must be an awesome experience with all the gear you have there, you're just missing the HUD - which I worked on the software back in the late '80s/early '90s in Airborne Displays Division (ADD) at GEC Avionics, I updated bits of CCIP, CCRP and LCOS as part of Block 50. Hence, the F-16 is my "go-to" bird in DCS too but I have to put up with an R9 3900X, 32GB, RTX3060 and Quest 2. Those are some amazing hardware specs you have, and I'm very jealous! 😉
Were living in a period of human history, where Gaming can be added to Father-Son activities besides Fishing, Repairing things, Camping etc. A bit strange, isnt it? I really hope I'll be able to do something similar to this with my own child in a WWII flight-sim
@@Willdass mitt fly var stort sett 682,men når det var på hoved service eller opptatt annet sted tok vi over andre fly. Har kanskje vært borti 677,men husker ikke, vi hadde 666,men det var ikke et populært fly. 😄.
@@Willdass det stod lege på rebuild etter et uhell på red flag øvelse i usa🤣. 682 var også et problem fly som flygerene så på som en flyfri dag om de fikk det. Etter noen måneder med skruing å pleie så ble det et knall fly. 😄. Vekker gamle minner disse nummerene. Fantastiske maskiner
Flott video! Kult å se denne maskinen i DCS. Jobbet flere ganger på 675 tilbake i min tid som CCA :D Var også med å sende Jan Erik i Autofil avgårde i 306: th-cam.com/video/clpyv8tMEDo/w-d-xo.html
I only have experience with the Aero, G2 and Quest Pro, but out of those three the Aero is definitely my favorite. It is the sharpest both inside the cockpit and at longer ranges. The performance is also incredible, especially now with Dynamic Foveated Rendering (game changer). The Quest Pro is also a very good option (best lenses), now that the price has come down. But was not fan of the battery life, having to constantly reapply Oculus Tray Tool settings (auto apply never worked for me), and I also experienced a lot of ghosting... The downsides of the Aero for me is the price (obviously) and it not having inside out tracking, it's also not as comfortable as the G2 on my head.
@@Willdass last question, does the aero require base stations or does it work like the G2? I have the G2 and Valve Index, both of which have their pros and cons, the index having the proper base stations along with the best controllers and the G2 for the clarity. I feel the aero with the index controllers would be the best. Thoughts? Is that possible?
@@mental720s No worries, happy to help :) It requires lighthouse tracking, so that's what I meant regarding the down side of not having inside out tracking. I have one base station now, would be optimal with two, but have not had any significant tracking issues yet. Don't quote me but I think that is the solution most use if they want the Aero and controllers. I don't see any reason it wouldn't work. The Varjo Base setup uses SteamVR to connect to basestations and controllers. But you don't need to fly DCS in SteamVR (I don't).
This is VR, so the recording is very sensitive to small head movements. Even a headache will appear in the recording. Could improve it a bit in post but did not do it here unfortunately.
We usually fly on a training server I host. Usually some formation flying, air refuelling and some patterns( both VFR and IFR). Recently started incorporating some BFM sets and basic A-G. I also often fly on the Hoggit at war servers or Grayflag. Have not tried the liberation campaign yet. Thanks for watching!
That would be cool, but I would not hold my breath for this unfortunately. The sim is already extremely hard for most PCs to run, so doubt it will ever be on console.
Might be a stupid question but is DCS better than FS2020 ? I see they both have allot of gigs but you can obviously shoot in DCS being the difference. What are the maps like ? They open words also or restricted to a degree ? I'm thinking of getting into the DCS world is why I ask. Currently been playing the other since rhe release but looking for something new. XPlane 12 is dope also. But not like this ... opinions ??
IMO DCS is far superior when it comes to flight modeling and military aircraft (ofc). For example there is a huge difference in quality between the DCS F18 and MSFS F18, it's not even comparable. Even if you don't like dropping bombs/air to air, DCS is great for formation flying and just flying around in jets/warbirds/helos. The aircraft in MSFS does not feel as "worn in" as in DCS either, looks almost too clean... DCS aircraft feel more lively to me. Ground textures and weather effects are better in MSFS. MSFS have the whole earth mapped, while DCS have restricted maps (still huge and it will take you a few hours to cross the maps depending on the aircraft). DCS looks good though, don't get me wrong. I also don't like the way MSFS does keybinds, they do not have separate keybinds per aircraft, which is really annoying. For me it really comes down to this: If you want to fly GA/Commercial and go sightseeing: fly MSFS If you want to fly military aircraft (in any capacity, combat or non combat) DCS, no doubt.
you guys can smooth out the jerkyness of the formation by having lead not hold a speed but a throttle setting that kinda keeps him around the speed you wanna be at.. do not move that throttle back n forth as lead with a wing man close in.. but instead control your speed by a gentle STEADY CONSTANT pull on the strick in turns. Even if you're at 240 or 270 and u called 250 it's fine. It's better to not jerk the throttle because if you jerk the throttle you will move around alot in your wingmans screen. For him it's much better to fly wing on a jet with a constant power setting rather than a jet that's jerking the throttle to hold 250. i hope this made sense.
Thx for the tips. We aim to fly at a set throttle setting/ fuel flow when at similar weight and in cruise/climb/decent, but hard to do in the pattern since we are constantly change the AOA, bank angles and altitude. We are still quite new to formation flying so a lot to improve on! Thanks for watching :)
@@Willdass well the set throttle is just for lead fuel flow is a good idea too but mainly lead can call out a spead with the pre briefed agreement that it's not going to be held to the knot and is just an idea for closure rates but once on the wing u dont need to know the speed just use visual cues and hold position. it will come with practice the more you fly formation you will pick up on it.
@@Dermeister009 Well yeah, would be impossible for the wingman to also have a set throttle, that's not what I meant. When in close formation like this I'm not looking at my HUD/Instruments so the speed call outs are more "nice to know", not "need to know". But I still find it valuable as I can understand when lead is planning to reduce /increase speed and I prepare to make necessary adjustments. For example on base/final with high AOA I don't have a lot of throttle to make additional reductions reductions so I need to use the speed break and that ofc takes time to react. Therefore its good to be ahead of the curve. If lead would not warn me about speed reductions I would probably blow past him, hard to feel small power corrections in the sim. But thanks for tips! Do you fly IRL?
@@Willdass Yea i gave the tip because it's a common mistake that leads do and i used to do it too, and i notticed it was alot easyer for wing men to fly off of me if i kept my throttle steady regardless of speed aslong as i was with in a speed bubble. I gave that tip because i noticed the lead infront was "jerking" back n forthmeaning he was fucking his throttle about to hold a speed. Wich in turns makes it a bit harder and less smooth on the wingman. I do not fly IRL, IRL i'm in the canadian Army, i'm a armored crewman BUT i'm in my 30's I've been flying Since i'm 9 years old and i was the youngest instructor pilot in a squadron called the freebirds in Falcon 4.0 all the way through BMS and now i fly BMS altho i don't have as much time to fly now than i used to i used to take new people up and train them to fly with the squadron i was in. any how i hope the tip helps to smooth out the jerkyness. The main take away is don't worry about being on speed as lead so much but do worry about accelerations and deceleration of the aircraft. it will allow the wingman to tuck in there quite closer with out worry that his lead will sudandly slow down or accelerate.
I’m making a video on it due to a lot of interest so stay tuned, but short story: I record one eye with Nvidia Shadowplay at max settings. Then crop the image to 16:9 in DaVinchi Resolve, no post processing needed to enhance the image. Thanks for watching :-)
@@WhereNerdyisCool tbh I have not had great success with OBS… Do not get the same quality(it’s probably possible though) and shadowplay is just so extremely easy to use. Especially when I only recording one source, and not managing multiple windows and audio inputs.
I've only tried the HP Reverb G2, Meta Quest Pro and the Aero, and to me its the clear winner. The clarity is just insane. Main downside being the FOV compared to the Quest Pro. The definitive game changer now is that you can have Dynamic Foveated Rendering with the Aero. Which gives huge performance boost with a insanely sharp eye-tracked sweet spot.

I do not fly IRL, IRL i'm in the canadian Army, i'm a armored crewman BUT i'm in my 30's I've been flying Since i'm 9 years old and i was the youngest instructor pilot in a squadron called the freebirds in Falcon 4.0 all the way through BMS and now i fly BMS altho i don't have as much time to fly now than i used to i used to take new people up and train them to fly with the squadron i was in. any how i hope the tip helps to smooth out the jerkyness. The main take away is don't worry about being on speed as lead so much but do worry about accelerations and deceleration of the aircraft. it will allow the wingman to tuck in there quite closer with out worry that his lead will sudandly slow down or accelerate.
I'm curious how you recorded/captured this
I’m making a video on it due to a lot of interest so stay tuned, but short story: I record one eye with Nvidia Shadowplay at max settings. Then crop the image to 16:9 in DaVinchi Resolve, no post processing needed to enhance the image. Thanks for watching :-)
@@Willdass ah Shadowplay, ok...I wasn't sure if it was a capture from OBS Studio. Thanks!
@@WhereNerdyisCool tbh I have not had great success with OBS… Do not get the same quality(it’s probably possible though) and shadowplay is just so extremely easy to use. Especially when I only recording one source, and not managing multiple windows and audio inputs.
Beautiful flying ! What is the map's name please ?
Thanks! This is the Syria map, airfield is Incirlik.
edit: typo
@@Willdass thanks you ❤️
Goals.

thanks mate!
Awesome cinematic, but - which dialect do you speak?
Thanks. "Vestlandsk", from the south-western part of Norway.
Today I knew envy...
Are the Varjo aero as good as they say?
I've only tried the HP Reverb G2, Meta Quest Pro and the Aero, and to me its the clear winner. The clarity is just insane. Main downside being the FOV compared to the Quest Pro. The definitive game changer now is that you can have Dynamic Foveated Rendering with the Aero. Which gives huge performance boost with a insanely sharp eye-tracked sweet spot.
Any chance we can see your graphics settings ?
I was working on a video for it, but then 2.9 came and I’m still fine tuning my settings. Will upload when I’m ready.
Im must be an orphan. The only way i get my boots back on the ground is good ole ctrl e × 3
😂😂😂
gg styler
А ГДЕ КУПОЛ?
Wish I had a dad lmao
What kind of fps are you getting here?
Usually between 50-60 below 5k ft, and 80-90 above
Try to be more fwd. By looking at the left 90* you should see a gear
Thanks for the tip! My formation skills are definitely WIP, haha!
How is the aero?
With Dynamic Foveated Rendering it’s absolutely stunning and great performance. Would love to have a bigger FOV, but we can’t win them all.
3:15 - !!!
A bit close there... haha!
How did you record in VR?
