tspmi888 Posted October 5, 2016 Posted October 5, 2016 Short of VR, what is the best tracking hardware out there for use with dcs.. Like trackir etc Pls recommend 2600k Intel asus rog Maximus v mobo. 32 gb crucial ram. 256 ssd and 5 Tb 7200 hdd. 980 Gtc ti 23 inch Samsung 1920 x 1080 monitor. W saitek x65f hotas Windows 10 64 bit
iVVChewy9141VVi Posted October 5, 2016 Posted October 5, 2016 TrackIR 5 would be the best track hardware currently at the moment that is not VR. You can also get TrackIR4 if you are on a budget for $99.99 on amazon. I would recommend 5 but again if your on a budget 4 would be a great choice. I heard of other track products out there but I personally have not tested them so I can not recommend.
boedha68 Posted October 5, 2016 Posted October 5, 2016 Yep, trackir 5 is the best. In the past i used facetracknoir it's free. But i was very happy when i got my trackir 5. The best.

amazingme Posted October 5, 2016 Posted October 5, 2016 I've tried FTNoIR with ps3eye + devon clip and also Opentrack, freetrack but they cannot match TrackIR 5 stability and performance. I don't know how the latest versions of those are performing, but I'll keep you posted as I'll do some tests over the week-end for a friend.

dburne Posted October 5, 2016 Posted October 5, 2016 Agreed, outside of VR Track IR5 would be the best for head tracking. Still using mine and love it, could not fly without it.

Chief1942 Posted October 6, 2016 Posted October 6, 2016 Have been using the TrackIR for a long time. I just upgraded to the LukeClip in place of my old tried and true hat clip that came with my TrackIR 4. The greater precision of the LukeClip is noticeable and although I have never tried the TrackIR Pro Clip due to all the bad reports as to that product's fragility, in function and precision they are most probably close in their abilities. So I would, like the others, recommend TrackIR 5. Like my JetSeat, I can't imagine flying DCS without them.
