Track IR

I'm furiously chasing down a unit as we speak.
This is one peripheral that I think will transform your game, and I've yet to read a bad review about it.

I've had a Track IR4 for a while now, works really well with COD. It is nearly as good as the 5 and can be picked up quite a lot cheaper and you can use the track ir 5 software with it which is superior to the 4. Its also very good for ARMA2 and Rise of Flight which I imagine a lot of you simmerd also own.

Ebay is aways an option if you are struggling to justify the cost, although they do sometimes sell second hand at nearly new prices! just goes to show how in demand they are.

Buy one, you will never look back! (in fact thats not true at all, you will 'look back' when ever you like, just by turning your head slightly

)

i am using trackIR3 pro with 6dof and it works as well. Only the field of sensor is smaller so i have to center my head exactly

. With trackIR you have more immersion than tripplehead monitoring or things like that.

It works great with COD. It feels so right. You won't regret it.

I just got my unit this afternoon.

It's an impressive piece of kit, and thankfully I don't suffer from the motion sickness that some have.
It's going to take quite a bit of getting used to though, and setting up a decent profile takes some time. (Still not happy with my profile, despite about 2 hours tweaking.)

Despite a few profile hiccups, this is clearly the only way to fully enjoy flight sims...it's like going from a keyboard to a hotas system.
The difference between this little beaut and using the hatswitch or mouse is enormous.

My favorite thing about COD is the 6DOF immersion!!

I sit in a swivel - style chair, and sometimes I get to dancin around like Ray Charles...

BTW, don't think twice about Track IR... It is equally as important as a joystick.
You will love it..

I've discovered that the Track Clip Pro is much better to use than the vector clips.

I'm using a small, blue, glittery alice band at the moment.

Hey, it works...

(I've ordered a set of earphones in the meantime though.)
