Solution to sweaty hands on Index controllers?
About 40 hours in and I am absolutely loving this game so far. My only issue that has persisted is the fact that after extended sessions, my sweaty hands start to interfere with the grip detection on my Index controllers. This has manifested itself in me being unable to let go of controls like the flight stick and particularly the throttle. I can temporarily fix it in the moment by quickly wiping my controller with my pant leg, but I've found this to be far from ideal. As fun as this game is, having to fight against the controls in the heat of the moment is an absolute drag and has been my main source of frustration. Has anyone found a solution to this issue?

If you can handle gloves I'm sure there are some that would work. I've got a pair of nomex flight gloves I've been meaning to test for the same reason.

Edit: I played for about an hour last night flying the AH94 with those gloves and it went pretty well. I lost grip on the collective twice but I think that was from my hand sliding. Those gloves are kinda of slippy on smooth surfaces but I think they'll work well if you have your knuckle strap tight and well positioned.
So I'd say if you have a thin pair of gloves give them a shot.

less sweat. baby powder. wear gloves. It's a hygiene issue. Wash your hands and apply baby powder before flight.
