Track IR, has anybody played with one?

Have any of you messed with one of these?

I'm thinking this is going to be my next purchase as soon as I can scrounge up some cash. I'm a FlightSim X junkie.




Here's a linky to NewEgg.com it's around 200$ and has great reviews.

My neck hurts just looking at it. Really cool though!

Holy Crap that is cool, Oh baby can you imagine that thing with tripe 30" widescreens? *drools on keyboard

-This really belongs in the tech talk area though, not reviews, I'll slide it over there.

<3 Fs2004, although i do have a new card now so maybe an FSX install is in order. These are really good, although if you find them a bit expensive i know there are a few free versions available on the internet. They may not be as smooth as Track IR but if you dont have £100 to spend it's a good alternative. Oh and hi, liking the forums ;]

edit. One more thing with Track IR is that you have to use the 3d cockpit, on MS Flight sims anyway, which may struggle on lower end systems.

Useless to me, but worth the +rep!

I saw this years ago but it was really dodgy. Looks like it has come a along way.

I lovvveeeee Armed Assault this would be so cool with it.

I just got one of these. I had to hock some of my stuff on ebay to find the cash. I'm a flight sim junkie.

It's really cool. It's definitely worth the money. It took about an hour to get the feel of it. The biggest thing I figured out was sit back in your chair. When you get real close to the screen it acts up a little.

What's really cool is it works in any game that has a mouse look function i.e. BF2 and BF 2142 my favorites.
