Question about input

[rcmodels]

Oh! I almost forgot.

Do we know if this will support free-track? My infrared wiimote freetrack system works great in other sims. Did Naturalpoint pay them off not to support any DIY solutions, so that they can retain their monopoly on the market? They have a history of that kind of crap...

This is the big can of worms of a couple of weeks back (the current one is Steam). After tons and tons of posting and fighting between ourselves, the end result is that we have no idea yet if it will work with Freetrack

I'd be interested to know as well, i had a TrackIR 4 Pro but it stopped working so i installed FT to use in the meantime before deciding if i'll get a new TrackIR camera or try to somehow repair it.

S!

Do you mean potentiometers with "rotary switches"? This one is already supported in IL-2 in the HOTAS section of the button configuration screen. You can have analogic rotaries for all the trim axis, flaps, propeller pitch, brakes and maybe something else I can't remember

I made myself a rotary board with 2 potentiometers which I stuck in the TM Cougars rudder pedal port. They work as the "toe brakes" in Cougar setup but I have configured them as rudder trim and flaps in IL-2
