...that the Track IR Pro with the Clip is the most awesome piece of computer hardware I've ever bought!

I use it for FS X and TDU right now. It has enhanced my FS X experience incredibly. It's a complete new sim now! The freedom I experience is absolutely awesome! It totally changed the way I use the sim!

I used to do short GA-flights (half an hour max) and frequently speeded up the time. I started on the runway and stopped FS as soon as I landed. Not anymore! I do not even THINK about speeding FS up because... it's just not real! And Track IR makes FS so REAL!
Now I always start with a cold and dark cockpit at the parking or gate and I do not quit until I'm cold and dark again at a parking or gate. Now I'm flying an hour and a half before I know it! It's as if I'm really there!

I also always used to fly the same plane everytime because I didn't like to have to get used to all those different popup panels you needed (they are very often different for each plane) and looking around with the mouse was too tedious, but now I load another aircraft and just look around to find everything! At the moment I fly the Maule because you can see so much from that VC: you can even look right down. Very nice to see those cars passing underneath you while you are landing.

Well, anyway, Track IR Pro rocks, it's freakin' awesome, it works like a charm and I couldn't play without it anymore. FS will never be the same. It has become THE game for me now. Nothing better than relaxing up high in the sky! And all that ths to Track IR.

Sorry for being so enthousiastic and positive but I just can't help it...

We've all known that since it first came out, and are all just as enthousiastic about it.
Now get yourself an I-vibe cushion, take the six motors out and build them into your cockpit seat and feel the vibrations of the flaps extending as your watching them out your window. I-Vibe does the same as TrackIr for Total Immersion in race and flightsims.
I like to look down at the Landing Gear lever while feeling the vibration as they drop and watching the 3 greens come on and feel the vibrations stop as the gear is down and locked, same with Gear up, flaps, takeoff and landings and when turning you look for traffic and feel the G's/vibrations as you turn and vibrations stop as you level out and look ahead. I vibe works off the Data coming from the sim, not the sound like a Bass Shaker.
I never fly without TrackIR and I-vibe.

A tip for TrackIR is to map zoom in/zoom out to a rocker switch on your yoke/joystick so that when you enter a cockpit you van zoom out a bit to see all the gauges and when looking for traffic/airports and so on you can look in the right direction and zoom in to get a better view.
Also map the Center TrackIR to a joystick button to make it easier to be looking ahead and centering Track IR on the run instead of having to take your hand off the yoke to hit a Key.
Welcome to the club of happy customers.
I'm waiting for my Clip to turnup in the post so I can do away with the hat and reflectors.
