But we also have split-phase which is _two_ 110 volt lines but 180* out of phase with each other.

It would help if you put your flaps out to full if you want to land on the carrier. :)

If you didnt know there is currently an issue with the XTX and VR headsets plugged directly into the GPU. It exhibits very high frame time deltas (very frequent spikes) in the frame time delivery in directX11 VR games. It is especially prevalent in WMR. Ironically the Pico 4 is one of the only vr headsets that will work correctly with dcs and the 7900xtx currently haha as it does not directly connect to the gpu. Give it a go with your G2 in openXR (as steamvr also currently has a bug with wmr and the xtx where gpu utilisation is not 100% in directX11 games) and you will see what i mean :) (right control pause break then click the down arrow to see the framtime graph). We in the dcs community have been trying to compile data for AMD to fix the issue and hopefully it is fixed soon :)
