And last who the heck uses joysticks hat switch to look around! i mean seriously! :D

 

I think you will be surprised at how many, very good, pilots do use the hat switch. Personally, I don't get it, but the fact remains. :)

I set my 4th & 5th mouseButtons (to Ctrl & Shift fcn) in Win if you asking this. Ingame the buttons acts like normal keyboard keys.

 

I can't afford TrackIR 5. I can't set aside so much money. So I am happy with the mouse. In the end it is aaalmost the same, you move your head I move my hand :)

You might be able to find a cheaper track IR4 on ebay or go with that free facetracknoir program and buy a webcam... would be better than mouselook I would assume?

If you're going down the FreeTrack/FreeTrack route, don't skimp on your webcam - or, do your research at least.

 

You will need it to sample at a decent resolution at 30fps minimum. Resolutions above 720p are ideal

I don't always openly list my things. But when I do, I put it in my signature.

If my TrackIR were to fail, I'd but another one right away -- I wouldn't fly w/o it.

Same. TIR makes a huge difference for me. Try flying the Sabre and being able to track the enemy you just shot down fall all the way to the ground over your left shoulder.

 

Once you get it setup right, it feels horrible to play without it.

 

Saying that, there aren't THAT many games you can use it in.

 

If you don't play DCS much, it probably isn't worth it unless you play any other flight sims / driving sims or Arma.
