Brad,
I've been in contact with Craig about his program. He sent me his program's source code and the debug.zip shared memory stuff. If you want it Private message me your email address. Also I've talked just a little bit about this to Erwin "EagleEye" Neyt, the guy who seems to know the most about Falcon 4's shared memory stuff.

Hi Snake122,

I picked up the source to Craig's software a while back, he posted a link in a forum somewhere. Can't remember where now!

Unfortunately since I grabbed the SDK I've only had time to have a quick browse through the code. It all looks nicely documented!

I was a little suprised to see Yaw, Pitch and Roll data in the SDK. Is the TrackIR software able to see roll as well?

Yes it works quite well with SP3 in the 3D cockpit! I'm talking with Kx2us on the Frugal's World forums about trying to improving and intergrating his keymapping program into the Falcon Track IR one in this thread so it will work in the 2d cockpit also: http://forums.frugalsworld.com/vbb/show ... adid=41125
For now in the 2D try programming a joystick button to repeat press the right mouse button and you will get panning, it just might also flip cockpit switches you don't want it to flip
