Trackir 5 is so much better than "3" - and that was good too.

F9/lock for the outside views and move via the coolie hat, unlock for inside. Lean round the girlie's head (in the Christen Eagle or the A2A Piper) to see the runway. Or raise the desk chair to look over the nose... In some planes or helis, you can even lean into the bubble canopies to look down (great for the underslung loads!)
 
Folks, you don't have to sit still the whole flight. You can program in a big null zone, even how far it turns, just tweak.

If you really need to move, take the cap off. It resets to a forward view after a few moments of not detecting the reflectors.

Need to check something or land, put the cap back on, head in right position, hit F12, you're back in business.

For goodness sake, take control of the camera, don't let it control you. :icon_lol:
 
I have my keys mapped on my Nostromo so if I want to sloach down I just recenter the view with a touch of a button, easy peasy.

One more thing, make sure there are no bright lights behind you when using TIR. It will really screw up your tracking. I have a lamp off to one side of my monitor slightly behind my head that doesn't bother it at all, but when my daughter comes in the game room and flips the overhead light switch it wigs out my view pretty bad.
 
How do people fly without a TrackIR? It's my favorite piece of gear. Easy to use and get used to! I won't take off without it!:engel016:

Hi Scratch,

There are adjustments for that. Jast had to make a few because of a lamp. :)
