Hi,

just wanted to ask if you are planning on bringing Vector to the SmartNAV Software?
Possible uses I could think of are for example zooming in/out (there would have to be a deadzone of course so that you don't get seasick when editing a word document .
Also I found this post in the SimHQ forums:

BUT... 6DOF is still a big step up for PF, just in Pitch and Yaw alone. Remember, it is not that 6DOF doesn't work in PF that is NOT TRUE, it just works on only 2 axis, pitch and yaw. You now have true pitch and yaw, no more having to worry about slouching in your chair, or holding your head still. Also, profiles are now the same amoung all Vector users. This is a big deal and makes the game easier to play and much easier for new users to get used to. We are looking forward to your feedback!

Sooo, that sounds like SmartNAV users could also profit from Vector?

Regards,

Sven

We may make Vector work with SmartNAV at some point in the future, like you describe.

In the current version of SmartNAV it will pause the cursor if you start typing. A feature that I requested myself!

Jim,

Just out of curiosity, what makes smartNAV so much more expensive than trackIR? Is there a hardware difference between the two?
