hey guys, my trackir5 is dying slowly, so i wanted to know, how freetrack is working...
i have trackir5 now for almost exactly two years, and i was really happy with it.i couldnt fly without it anymore.but two years, isnt a long time for a webcam for 150euros, so im hesitating whether i should go again with trackir or if i should go for the much cheaper version, freetrack.

now what im really looking for, is the quality....i think i would really hate to use freetrack, if it wouldnt work as good as trackir.so the first big question,...is it possible, with the proper webcam, to get freetrack working as good as trackir.

second question,....which webcam?(i think i would prefer to have one with infrared leds, so that i could use my already existing track clip from trackir)
i would really like to avoid to sit with a flashlight or torch on my cap in front of my rig....im already looking strange enough with the track clip.

please moderators, leave this thread at least a while in the main section, as i really look for answers, and in the subforums, such threads tend to be ignored...thx in advance.
