You can fly gliders for real.

Why do it in VR when VR lets you hunt MiG 15s over the Yalu in an F86 or fly with von Richthofen in a Fokker DR1 or Bubi Hartmann in a Bf109?

I've tried getting Condor running on my Vive without much success. Seems both the Rift and Vive don't support DirectX7 or DirectX9 (because it's old as the hills). It might be possible to get it working with some sort of middleware like VorpX, but I haven't heard of anyone succeeding yet.Â

I wouldn't go buying either headset for use with Condor just yet.Â
