I find it VERY easy to keep Revi on target with TrackIR. I can even easily compensate for G effects, whose can give pretty hard time for non TrackIR users.

... do you aim then with "shoulderstraps loosened" because otherwise you cant even see the crosshairs in the revi of the 109?

I experienced that you only can see the crosshairs properly with shoulderstraps loosened but then you are so close on the revi with your nose that your angle of sight is too narrow. One hard turn of your target and you loose it out of sight, then you`ll have to get back to position "shoulderstraps tight on" where you have a wider angle of view but that takes too much time to get reoriented again and the target escapes.

A bit of practice and patience and you learn how to keep the 109 revi in your sight with track ir.

I fly zoomed out and simply lean slightly to the left and forward when aiming, works a treat.

I aim only in "that" mode, in which I can look back. Also I extensively use linear X, Y, Z translation axis of TrackIR, without any deadzones.

have you tried the default profile in the recent TrackIr software. With a few tweeks, it works perfectly with COD. I was messing around for days with my old IL2 1946 profile and others from kind donaters on this forum and i just find that this default profile is easily the best (i have a TrackIR 3 with vector enabled) . . . . . . . .

I have track-IR4 with vector expansion. Tried recently the latest track-IR5 software which works in the old IL2 sim perfectly but does not at all react in Cliffs of Dover. So I reinstalled my "old" latest version of track-IR4 software. That works in Il2-CoD also in 6DOF mode, no problem!
But maybe I should change the movement settings from "agressive" to "default". I´ll try to play arround with it tonight until I find the best settings for the 109 cockpit gunsights.
Thanks for all your helpful answers.

Btw with the new software did you make sure you selected the vector rather than the pro clip.

I use a clip and had problems before, it was because the software kept reverting back to the vector rather than the pro clip.

P.s. The clip rocks
