    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

Hi All

Based on rave reviews in most places i got one of these. Interested in hearing from others who have this gadget as well please. I have done all the calibration/sensitivity setting but finding that the view forward when I am not moving my head (and with eye tracking turned off) is very "jittery" and the picture is jerking / jumping about. Its actually making me feel quite airsickl! I have also discovered that it doesn't work well with fast jet HUDS. As usual all comments/suggestions welcomed.
 
While MSFS 2024 recognizes mine, it will not track left, right, up, or down more three finger widths while touching my 32" screen.

When I have time, I'll go to your posted link and maybe fool around with it in the sim.

I noticed that the last post for the link was August 2024. Nothing since MSFS 2024 came out in November.

Thanks Jay - I have found some really helpful videos etc on this (2020 specifically in my case).

Mark at Simhanger on U-Tube has done a really clear piece on the sensitivity adjustments particularly and I have found his settings work pretty well. I find the Tracker to be just about useable for GA flying but for fast jets I actually felt ill after a few minutes of flying circuits. I guess it's a similar sensation to that which some folk get using VR headsets. I'll keep trying though.
 
I suggest you keep tweaking (even though you didn't ask). I have set my eye tracker to be more of a head tracker so you don't get the fast side to side movements and an overall more fluid view.

Thanks again Jay - I have had a message from the Tobii team to say that the "jitters" are a known issue and they are trying to find a way to eliminate it. They said that it should disappear after a few minutes flying.
