Does anyone have a good custom TRACKIR 5 profile to use with the 737NGX ?

 

Thanks,

Kevin McCarthy

I'm using the profile posted by Wags over on the DCS forums. It's got about the same sensitivity as the default profile, but with a decent deadzone in the middle. It's not that great for cockpit preflight (Because the deadzone means that you run out of the sensor's FOV fairly quickly), but for flying, it's spectacular.

Yes, please! I have the same question... So far, I've stopped using TrackIR.

 

Joseph, I'm getting what you said there:

Is there one that is good for both preflight and flying?!

The trick to preflights is looking down a bit & recentering to reach everything on the overhead.

Hi, i am using "Seth" profile.

Its good for all actions inside the VC.

Maybe some speed adjustment inside TR.IR menue

up to your taste.

Sorry, I don't have the link handy.

But Google should be your helping hand.

It's here, and it's what I'm currently using.

Pretty good range of motion. For the overhead and radiostack I use custom EZDOK views so I'm not breaking my neck.

"Seth" profile as well here - smoothing turned on.

Again ...

 

Yes thats what i am setup as well. TRIR speed is set to 1.5 - 1,7.

Only thing i couldn't manage so far, is to limit the view radius to like 120 degrees each side. (for reality)

Right now i still got an angle of 180 degrees each side, like a bird does ;-)

The reason it's not good for preflight is because IRL, the 737 overhead is literally over your head. Wags' TrackIR profile works for preflight, but plan on recentering it often and sitting there with your neck cranked up while you fiddle with the overhead. I find it easier to just set up view that let me look at what I need to use, and turn my TIR on about when I start the APU.

Track IR custom profile + EZDok (I spent almost 1 hour testing and calibrating my own profile)

'Seth' profile, EzDok and hat switch on yoke to move view.

I find that sometimes looking down towards the fmc etc I end up looking out of top of my head at the monitor. I use the hat switch to move my view position down and Trackir to change my view then,.

Guys,

Please take the time to make your own it's easy.

 

1) Get rid of the dead zone, move the middle dot up just above the bottom line, it's that simple.

2) Turn of mirror for pitch, I find a more faster/step curve is better for looking down and a normal one for looking up. It's feels like your glancing down like you would do.

3) Move the Itrack to the left of lineament so you see your 3 lights to the right of the middle, it lets you move more over to the right as that is where you want to go for MCP etc.

4) Set smooth to max and speed to 1-1.5

 

Have a go it really is easy.
