First time I logged into the corvette and looked down the ship, it completely changed the game.

Just wish headsets weren't so heavy.

I put a counterweight on the backstrap of mine, now it feels much less lopsided on my head

I have this counterweight style on my fpv drone, it is nicer... but that headset is also much lighter overall

Yeah getting a new headset for the Oculus with a battery in the back is a comfort game changer. It's not the weight of the headset that's a problem, it's that it's all front loaded.
