Best thing since sliced bread once you get used to it. Slight learning
curve since you have to move your head but keep your eyes locked on
the screen. A very few can't get it. Most pick it up fine.

You may take some adjustment vs the defaults to get the amount you
need to move your head to match the amount you want your view to
change.

You'll also want to map a "center view" to your stick so you can reset
center periodically to avoid neck strain.

I used to be DEADLY on Lock-on in close in furballs. I could slew my
view at will quickly. Made flying the plane low and managing looking
at 1, 2, or even 3 baddies at the same time childs play.

With the Sukhoi helmet mounted sight, it was simply look, lock, and
shoot.

If anyone ever makes a F-35 sim down the road and has that bird's HMS
simulated, this thing will be a MUST for it.

Makes taxiing and pattern work a joy on MSFS. Also lets you look
around and explore the virtual cockpits easier on those longer boring
enroute segments.

I have known track ir for quite some time, but have always thought that
it just can't work well enough to be worth the 200 dollars.
Untill now.
