SIMXR. It requires a VR headset with "pass-through" capability. It requires Virtual Desktop. It costs $10. The homepage says it will not reduce fps nor performance.

Why would I want to ruin my beautiful VR image with a passthrough cut out?

Just defeats the purpose of VR for me.

 So you can see your expensive throttle and other equipment and bring it into VR with you

It's called muscle memory, a decent working human central nervous system can learn to access and use our flight sim hardware peripherals while in VR within a couple weeks of practice/familiarity.

If I constantly need to remove my HMD from my face to fiddle with my smartphone or replace my avionics displays with a crappy passthrough displays to see where my hands go then maybe I should just stick to 2D?

Muscle memory is an amazing thing, within a couple months I could accurately access every hardware, button, switch and dial within reach of my sim setup while in VR.

Every other control is in the virtual cockpit and can be accessed with a VR controller.

it'll be great once there's a way to save the size and position of the windows. I hope someone comes up with a method that can use cabled openxr and not just rely on VD. I've been using open kneeboard to do the same thing (free but can do only a variation of a single rectangle) and has been great for me, but it's still through VD.

Why pay $10 when it's free at flightsim.to?

It's called Color Panel
