737NGX and DynamicHeadMovement

The reason the head movement is different from MD-11 in JS4100 is because of an FSX bug. For some reason, the further the cockpit (camera position) is from the airplanes pivot point (center turning point), the more wobble it causes in the virtual cockpit. The effect gets bigger the closer you are to the equator.So for the NGX, the head movement would be more notable in the -800 and -900 models, than in the -600 and -700 ones.

Antti is right, there's nothing we can do to control this. Even when using EZ Dok or Track IR there's still some slight motion that happens from it - the weirdest part too is that there's more or less motion based on the actual heading of the airplane too - who the heck knows how they programmed this, but it's weird.

Not fully. There's always a small amount of movement from it even if you set it all to 0 in the cfgs.

Zero the values in fsx.cfg under [DynamicHeadMovement]

I hate gravity!

in the cameras.cfg file, i set the momentumeffect=No in the second [CameraDefinition] (should have the title Virtual Cockpit).I find i have no movement in VC mode personally.Sometimes you may ALSO find this setting in the aircraft cfg also. This will overide the fsx.cfg setting, so check both.
