Digital Aeronautics Mi-2 Hoplite Review | MSFS in VR (Pimax Crystal Light)

Taking a first look at the Digital Aeronautics Mi-2 Hoplite for Microsoft Flight Simulator! In this video, we jump into virtual reality using the Pimax Crystal Light headset to inspect the exterior modeling, explore the analog Cyrillic cockpit, and take this Soviet workhorse up for a flight test over Warsaw, Poland.

We put the flight dynamics to the test—flying with an Xbox controller, navigating engine warnings and torque limits, testing hovering stability, and exploring the startup and shutdown procedures. How well does it run in VR, and is it a worthy addition to your MSFS helicopter fleet? Let’s find out.
