VR means HOTAS required

I quickly learned I cannot comfortably fly trying to fumble around blind and one handed on the keyboard.

Yep. Voice Attack is really handy too.

yeah but Elite with HOTAS is so much more fun anyways! Plus it really enhances the experience with VR as the character in the ship has his Hands on Joystick and throttle as well!

I wish the Star Citizen HOTAs were already out so I could buy one of them to use with both games but I guess I have to buy another one for Elite... The new X56 Looks nice... but I saw one YouTube Review which was not good

I use an Xbox Elite controller for XB1, PC, and PC VR ED. No hotas or similar required

A hotas is nice but there are other options, even in VR.

In my rift if i look down i can still see to type even
