Here's my take on the matter. TLDR...steer clear till they can actually guarantee that their products work properly. No ifs,buts and this is strange/odd/interesting...

Had the PS3 cam/Track hat clip plus (wireless) for over a year now. The clip did have quality issues (leds covered in hard gule) but never had game breaking problems.Found my optimal curves,had the cam working at 75hz and i was golden. I thought the 200hz+tracking under any light condition would be great,so i have pre-ordered the tracker around March...as well as a new wireless clip(v1.2) in order to have the best possible experience. Got the clip first, which had better build quality,bigger leds,better performance (opentrack was picking +1~2px on every led).So far,so good. After a week i also received the tracker. After tinkering with exposure settings i ended up with 20px on the leds. Anything bigger than that would lead to point merge and anything less to poor tracking.The sweet spot is around 30.Second problem i have encountered, was choppy output.The tracker or the software is picking point flacuations of 2px and even with a perfectly steady head,the tracker will throw your aim off randomly. It just kills the experience.As a contrast,the flacuations picked up from a Ps3 cam+point track filter are 10 times less! So overall,we are talking about a new worse performing product, trying to replace a perfectly working old one. Finally the 50% discount or full refund upon sending the tracker back is a joke,even more so if you have to pay import fees or exorbitant postage. So all in all,if you are thinking of upgrading your head tracking set-up,you might as well go for Track ir5 and have less drama.

Yup,received one today. Worse experience from my previous setup with the PS3 camera. Got disappointed and went to their FB page, the only place you can actually get any sort of info. Apparently, they have issues getting their products to work together, which is comical at best. If it's software related, i am praying to every god and deity opentrack pick this up, because the "track hat" version of it is just laughable.

Personally i had issues with both AMD chipset drivers (soft locks) and Nvidia gpu drivers (stutters), but the actual point here is that you can notice a healthy improvement on an "outdated" system. Vulcan will be a welcome addition, but i wouldn't expect it any time soon. Pretty sure my system will be obsolete by the time it gets implemented into DCS.

Not a fan of updating drivers (if it works...) There is indeed a notable boost over the previous version.
