Wether this is helpful depends on wether TrackIR is similar to Freetrack. Given that the POV switches are redundant when either FT or TrackIR are enabled, I have assigned the following commands to the four POV positions to overcome the problem you describe. BTW, I use 6 DOF and Freetrack allows you to assign Keyboard commands to all of the various axis to turn them on or off, and to 'centre' your view with the option to 'pause'. Maybe TrackIR has the same options.

'Toggle Gunsight' (IL Keyboard command) Look around still available but now with 2 DOF but gunsight correctly orientated for accurate aiming. This works on all ac even though I thought it was specifically for certain types of ac.

'CentreView' with 'pause' (keyboard stroke assigned in Freetrack) and all axis disabled.

Wide FOV. (IL2 Keyboard command) If I move in to my gunsight then sometimes, rather than move back, I just select wide view and instantly have a better field of of view if the ac Im chasing suddenly changes its flight path.

Disable X -Y axis (Freetrack axis commands) so that I am perfectly in line with the gunsight when I need to be but can still look around if necessary.
