I also have this problem and explain it here:

http://forum.naturalpoint.com/showflat. ... #Post20123

"whilst looking down (Y axis), there seems to be a destablized 'zone' that pins your head to the seat. This is quite hard to explain but basically if TIR4 doesn't like the angle your trying to achieve it has a little tantrum to itself then pins you head to the seat aiming down. Your literally left looking at the bottom of the seat. This too is a nightmare in flight"

Please send the following information to our email address.

Could you attach a screen shot of your device manager, and tracking screen?

To make Print Screen work, you must save an image of what's displayed on-screen to the clipboard and then paste it into a document where it can be printed.

Windows Help: Print Screen

To do this, follow this procedure:

1. Maximize the window you'd like to capture.
2. To copy/capture the current window, hold down ALT + Print Scrn at the same time. To capture the entire screen, just press Print Scrn alone.
3. Open a new document in MS Paint, MS Word, MS Photo Editor, or Adobe PhotoShop.
4. Paste the screen shot by holding down CTRL and V at the same time.
5. Save the document as a .JPG or .JPEG file and send it in.

Part of is tied into the issue of the axis point has been changed. It was initially in the center of the head, and now has been moved to the base of the neck to mimic the more natural head movement.

There are plans to allow the user to adjust the axis points in a future version of the software, but the current way to resolve the issue, is to adjust the axis settings.

OK thanks for the reply Vincent. Will have a play around with it & see if I can fix it.
Just surprised this changed from FSX Beta 2 & 3 which worked fine for me.
Wasn't aware the axis point had changed.

Cheers,

Ross

I have had this same problem as Nels. I have already adjusted my axis movements to keep them smooth. To me I cannot as yet see a solution from adjusting the axis.
