Hi,

You would think so, I asked the same question to a user. He said that the
IR units work OK with a single monitor. You can turn your head a little to
the left and keep your eyes on the screen. It doesn't seem like it would
work well to me, but it supposedly works better then you would think.

Joystick features that are nice to have: A "hat" for view control,
and a "throttle" control for moving the spoilers. I also like a
joystick with at least 5 or 6 buttons (so I can put flap and trim
controls on the joystick).

Optional extra for the technologically advanced: NaturalPoint
"TrackIR" (http://www.naturalpoint.com/trackir/). This is an infrared
camera that you put on your computer monitor. It watches a reflective
head-band or headset-clip that you wear, and uses your head movements
to let you "look around" freely.



.... so while you are looking at the wall instead of your wingtip, someone
else in the room can see what you ought to be looking at?

This would only be useful if you have Circlorama screens (whatever
happened to Circlorama?) or a pair of VR glasses.
