Is there a federated r/hoggit-like place already? What should a federated hoggit be called? Foggit? Or just combatflightsim@lemmyfly.org?
As for me personally, I mostly fly helicopters and mid-late cold war jets (guess my favorite) in DCS though I sometimes do MSFS and have previously flown X-Plane (7,8,11).
I use a VR headset, HP Reverb G2, with Virpil HOTAS and MFG pedals. Ryzen 5800X3D with an RTX3080.
Hey there. I mainly fly the F/A-18 Hornet in DCS on the Hoggit server.
I use a mix of VKB stuff, the WinWing Hornet controllers, and custom 3D printed stuff for my sim rig.
I’ve written up some of my projects:

http://gloryfish.org/project/macropad
I fly in VR with the Index.
I always love to hear about heli folks since I fell in love with simming way back in the day playing Gunship 2000.
I would dive in but I presently don’t have room to bolt a collective to my office chair. :P
Wow, those DIY projects look impressive! No need for a collective to fly helicopter, I also use a regular throttle. If you're interested, just activate a trial and reach out if you want a wingman. I can fly most helicopters except the Apache, but I prefer the Mi-24, Gazelle and Mi-8. I usually fly on Central-European evening time.
