My setup had been hobbled a bit (small monitor) but then I got the Vector Expansion and then set up a media PC with my big screen HDTV.
With Vector Expansion it's absolutely amazing! And all axes work perfectly. I can sit up and look over the nose to see the runway now - a serious issue before with FS2004.
My system is damn near a full simulator now and with a little more work...
What I really want to do is TrackIR and display goggles. That would be a trip!
Thanks NaturalPoint!
Talk about fun!
