Gaming Accessories Accessories
Flight simulator and gaming accessories really can take the home simulator experience to the next level. Adding instruments as well as cockpit frames plus more features like control panels and instruments can bring the experience to that immersive level you were looking for.
If your using VR (virtual reality), the instruments can be placed so as they are in the same place so in VR when you reach for an instrument its actually there.
Gaming Accessories – Treat Yourself?
Homal make a great gaming chair which would be a top addition to your flight simulator. Ensuring your comfortable through your flights so you can concentrate on getting those landings down with pin point accuracy.
I’m sure you would find this chair by by Homall a great addition. Ergonomic in its design with PU leather finish and height adjustable should be a great addition to the den. Note the mounts for your HOTAS system and be ready for action.
Setting up a great gaming and flight sim area requires a great basis and the Mr Ironstone L gaming desk is a great option.

Gaming Accessories are a Personal Preference
If your a passionate flight simmer and in my case creator as well there are a lot of gaming accessories you’d like to have close at hand. Its a bit mind blowing what’s available out there today if your looking to enhase your current simulator.
I have seen a 6 DOF simulator base if your going the full cockpit build as well as a lot of simulator frames ready to attach your monitor, controls and pedals. These are pretty flexible in their design accommodating both car racing as well as flight simulator setups.
Delving further into the rabbit hole there is all the clothing including flight suites, flying helmets and a lot more. Personally I have never seen the need for these but if it makes the whole experience more realistic then its what you should do.
VR is Changing the Gaming Landscape
Getting the full immersion in simulator & gaming accessories is the whole point after all. Why get something something that does not add to the overall experience. The latest Virtual reality units are the way to go. Immersive in a way a multi screen monitor setup cannot compete with. personally.
The VR experience takes you right into the environment with everything to scale you simply forget your sitting at a desk flying or driving enormously expensive cars and aircraft.
The latest offerings with the OCULUS Quest 2 now using the Link cable is allowing better quality vision than the Rift S that I own and am very happy with. There is always the Pimax 5K unit which seems pretty good with the widest field of view available I believe currently with 200 Degrees of field of view.
