    Hi all, not the Quest, but a video with Leap Motion hand tracking. (starts at 7:45)



    From my point of view it's fun having own hand available in the virtual cockpit, but as stated above, sometimes quite disturbing. Can be seen in the video.

    I hadn’t heard about Point CTRL until @Historiker told me about them. https://pointctrl.com/

    I     haven’t tried it yet but apparently it works really well. You don’t see your hands as I understand it. You just get a mouse dot, but it seems natural and doesn’t do odd hand things.

    I tried Leap Motion a few years ago but occlusion was an issue sometimes and so were misinterpreted hand poses.

    Watching that video makes me think, how did a mime get in the cockpit? or maybe perhaps a magician is flying the plane....but it looks pretty cool and glad you posted it.
