So far.
Seems a good bit of kit.
Just done a couple of circuits in the Hurricane. Main problem seems to be that reaching for the throttle I tend to lean to the left so end up staring out over the port mainplane.
It’ll take some getting used to I guess.

Hi Moggy, you said this on another thread –
“I’m only a half-hearted simmer”
Are you sure? 🙂
Yes.
I think it is the lack of realism that keeps me from becoming a hardcore simmer. I see the Track IR as an attempt to add more realism.
That’s my excuse 😎

I’m not sure about the difference between the 3 and 4 Moggy, I seem to recall reading about the resolution, so maybe the 4’s a bit more sensitive :confused:
Nice work though, it’s a great bit of kit. Incidentally, give the TrackIR website a look, the Vector expansion is well worth it for getting a better look at the instruments and so on. Think it’s about £20.
3 is ready for vector expansion, 4 has it incorporated, but not much sims are ready for it.
4 is reported to be more stable and less sensitive to falspositive signals like ambient lightsources, though I know many squadmates that have no issues with 3, though i have them.
Problem is when you get in the car after a hard night’s simming you start making these same stupid headmoves, and pulling on the gearlever for a deflection shot at the ‘dicke auto’ in front of you

FrankVW – did it happen to you too lol?
I left one on my white cap, and whilst walking around the town recieved many a strange glance….
It was until I got home and walked past the mirror that I realised why I was recieving them looks 😎
Hehe…

Don’t forget to take the dot off your forehead when you walk out 😉
