[@compramoscasasutah5859]

@@TheFlightSimDeck thank you!!

[@Robert-lz9cq]

You are absolutely correct in your observation that the weak point of the Track IR is the flimsy head piece that holds the three IR lamps themselves. I've been through 3, one of which TrackIR re-placed for free. They charge $50 for a replacement which is 1/3 the price of the whole system. Last time I took a chance and bought a replacement piece from Amazon or Ebay and cost $25.They work great and are much sturdier, though the mounting system still leaves something to be desired.

[@AusFlightSimmer]

Yeah, I totally agree Robert.

Couldn't believe it when I heard you said YCDR was your local airport. I was in Coloundra last year, visiting my best (Australian) mate who lives on Shelly Beach!

Ive been flying with TIR for about 6years started with P3D - and I can't fly without it anymore either in MSFS or DCS and I will be setting it up for Project Cars at some point- very versitile as you can adjust the head turn ratio settings very easily, I totally recommend it (esp as im not really interested in VR yet)

[@joncorso6103]

I was so excited when I got my trackir a couple of years back. Set it all up, configured it, ran euro truck simulator 2, and found I positively *hated it*. Discovered that I move around in my chair pretty much constantly when I game, shifting left and right, resting on one arm rest then the other, moving forward and back etc. Never really noticed it before. So my view was constantly bouncing around and drove me frickin' nuts. It made me sit like a rock in my chair, completely still, and totally uncomfortable. No amount of tweaking settings would work for me. So it sits on my shelf untouched now for years, gathering dust. I highly recommend folks try before you buy. Or start with the cheap options, in case it bothers you.

[@paulphibbs5362]

Hi Shane, I just purchased TrackIR 5 a couple of weeks ago. I’ve lost two units now due to thunderstorms in the area. I now disconnect the device if I suspect storms in the area. The last one TrackIR 4 lasted over 10yrs, which isn’t bad. I’m impressed with version 5 - better resolution and works very well with MSFS. MSFS had issues initially with TrackIR (screens jumping around when paused) but it is very good now. On the sensitivity, I had it set to -50 and found that the latest patch allowed me to remove all sensitivity. I’ve only tested the Cirrus and Baron at the moment.

[@AusFlightSimmer]

Paul, thanks I will take a look at the sensitivity. Cheers mate.

[@infinite2246]

Thinking of getting it because it is so important to have a visual reference as you are flying circuits!

[@AusFlightSimmer]

Exactly.

[@timmiddleton7493]

In a high wing before entering the runway we do an "S turn" on the taxiway so you can see each end o the field. Also if you use the SDK tools you can reduce the Height (scale ) of the vegetation. I found this out when removing trees from some local bush strips

[@AusFlightSimmer]

Tim, that makes so much sense. Thank you. I havent even looked at the SDK tool.

[@TheOneTrueSpLiT]

Do you go around mowing airfields and performing tree surgery in real-life to make airports void of vegetation and more to your liking?

[@timmiddleton7493]

@@TheOneTrueSpLiT In the sim it will represent a strip from the Bing Maps without knowing its an airport. Near my home airport YMIA 3 miles southwest there is a glider field with two strips and the sim has put several clumps of trees in the middle of the strips. I just use the SDK to remove them where they don't exist in RL

[@johnknapp952]

The two big issue with TrackIR, and I've been using it for many years now, is making sure you have the right style of headset if you use one, and making sure you don't have any sunlight behind you.

[@AusFlightSimmer]

Thanks John, I had sunlight issues during the vid.

[@benperreau]

Did build and using the EdTracker based on an accelerometer, gyroscope and magnetometer (same thing you have in your phone) and loving it. Tried camera with face recognition and Accela shape on a hat (not good in the dark when I do my sim), Did my own TrackIR equivalent (latency issue which do not exist with EdTracker). So the winner of all my testing is definitively EdTracker - just my opinion as we are all different.

[@timb.6951]

Pattern flight with the hat rocker switch for camera adjustments and using the mouse to look down at my instruments... seems like a good solution

[@billygames7107]

I also like the hat clip much better than the pro. saves me a usb and an extra wire also. I have tested both and the hat is just as accurate if not even more accurate. I glued mine to an all black hat like yours and works like a charm. I can also jump out of my seat and not worry about a dang wire. the trackir5 is the best for this game and trucking games where you have to look left and right before turning and check rear view mirrors often

[@Tiber234]

PS The Clip Pro version is better at maintaining a lock on head movements (even in brighter environments) than the hat clip, although the downside is that its wired - would be great if it had Blu tooth as an option

[@AusFlightSimmer]

OK, thnkas again.

[@choatus]

you can just cut the cord and add a small battery carrier box to it, then velcro it to the headband of your headset. OR cut cord of Traclip pro and wire on a usb C or Mini USB onto the end of it then add a small phone emergency recharge battery pack ( really cheap atm) both options work a charm, I prefer the recharge pack as you can get very small ones and its easy to buy 2 and swap them out if one runs out of charge.

[@alheeley]

It really is a great addition for an immersive experience. If you are handy with a soldering iron and screwdriver you can put together your own head tracker for about £15, using free open source software, and it works really well.

Very good Aus, 100% agree with you regarding difficulty in sims seeing what you need to when flying a circuit thanks for this. I’ve been considering a head tracker so this was very helpful. Oh and we Cessna pilots just slow down a bit and swing the nose around and back again onto the taxi line to take a look.

[@AusFlightSimmer]

Glad to help. Thanks for the tip.

[@ZZstaff]

I've been using TrackIR 5 since its release. In flight FSX and MSFS 2020 I find that I can see further down in the cockpit if I look upward just a little then push the F12 key, it allows better low look views. And I use a ball cap with TrackIR 5. I flew the Cessna 152 in real life for flight training, the main problem with it is it was very loud engine noise in the cockpit. I liked the Piper Warrior much better and low wing aircraft allowed me to see over the wings on base turns when doing pattern work. Also, at some point in training or after PPL, after setting the DG with the compass I began using the 90 degree hash marks on the directional gyro to know when to come out of turns except final approach which was the runway itself [again pattern work].

[@AusFlightSimmer]

Thanks for the comment. I will try the look up a little F12 tip. Cheers.

It was hard for me to use trackir in the beginning, now i dont want to fly without...

Nowadays i use the trueview feature in the trackir program. Works a treat with looking over your shoulder.

[@D800Lover]

What you now need is also for the screen to move with our head movements, so you don't turn to the left and your eyes have to look to the right at the same time. That is not immersive. But for up and down, looking at instruments etc, it would be great! BTW, I use a file that reduces the trees, works well.

[@daneav8]

A file? Why not use an axe, hedge clippers or chainsaw. A file would be tedious 😜

[@Tangentbordsblues]

What is the matter with with you? You use this first now? I was a total beginner with flightsim and realized from the get go trackir was essential. Maybe it helps that I'm using a 32 inch monitor, it feels natural and I don't feel like I have to turn much to see the surroundings. Feels really intuitive. Awesome video!

[@AusFlightSimmer]

I use VR its better. No VR in flight sim yet. As I mention it the video, I have had this for many years.

Hi I also use the 3 point clip for the hat. Got a bit warm wearing a hat all the time so just clipped the clip onto of the headset. Try clipping the hat version to the top of your headset. I heard you say you headset is to big, But If anyone is reading this it works well.

[@billygames7107]

i have vr and trackir5 and i prefer the trackir5 because i can still see all my controls. Thats my biggest thing i dont like about vr. that and the eye fatigue on long flights. the trackir5 is truly a game changer with msfs2020 as well as ats/ets2. Its super good on alldriving games also because its no nice to check the rear view mirrors without thinking. it makes the games so much more immersive. IMO its worth the money. If you can find one used especially its a great second hand product because you cant really wear them out. Get the basic version with the hat clip. The pro version uses a wire and usb and just isnt as good honestly. hat clip for the wind. Cheers

@@AusFlightSimmer You'll probably get sick of me saying it... ...but: Force feedback makes trimming relatively easy and painless. In older sims, without FF, I always found the procedure to be difficult and mechanical. Also, I noticed you thought you needed to trim a lot more than probably the real aircraft should. I haven't flown FS2020 yet, but if you're used to more modern trainers, I can see why you might come away with that impression. I think if you were to compare the C-152 (well, most if not all of the classic Cessna GA single engine models) to more modern designs, you'd also find that they require a bit more rudder input to counteract inverse yaw in turns.

I've been using trackir5 pro for a long time now and find it fantastic for a multitude of games.. but for flight sims its absolutely indispensable for that added extra " immersion ". In saying that ..it did take me a while to set the " perfect" profile for me ( Everyone is different and will have different requirements so therefore different settings of course), i use it in conjunction with a joystick hatstick for full "all round" views on one monitor but it does work with 2 screens too.

Can you use head tracking with a single monitor or do you need multiple?

This is just what I assume I’ve never used head tracking so excuse me if I’m wrong.

[@AusFlightSimmer]

Never tried it. I can't see why you couldnt use it with two.

[@Oz_Gnarly_One]

The trick is you aren’t using it 1:1 scale. So a small movement of the head relates to a much higher movement in the sim. If you play back the video when he looks for the runway over his right shoulder, his actual head isn’t turned that far. It sounds more awkward than it actually is.
