March 1, 20233 yr Hey all, I've typically flown larger airlines ifr which didn't seem to benefit from head tracking, but recently I've been doing mainly low and slow VFR flying and I'm looking to keep doing it as I really enjoy it. I'm on a 27" 1440p monitor, and pretty close to it (1.8ft) so visually it works well for me - and is also great for other games so no plans to upgrade just yet. I was wondering if this setup would benefit from head tracking? I'm looking into Delanclip and TrackIR - and guessing they're a good buy for someone on a smaller screen? I'm trying to mitigate the lack of horizon screen space to some extent, and feel head tracking could potentially be a solution! Thanks 🙂
March 1, 20233 yr I run a 27" 1440p and cannot fly without my TrackIR. It might be less critical on a flight deck at 31,000 ft but for low and slow VFR, I consider it essential. Head tracking adds another dimension to the sim - far more immersive. Does take a few flights to get totally comfortable using it but well worth it. If mine broke today, I would order another one.... today.

I've just ordered a pair of VKB rudder pedals and Delanclip wireless headtracking. Looking forward to moving on from hatswitch panning and twist stick rudder!
