depends on which aircraft you are in

But for most aircrafts what do you have to do?

BTW are you a pilot?

Do you have a Track IR? I'm going to get one:

I decided to go for the 4 in the end: the 5 would be ?25 more, money I could save for F1 2011 or Fifa 12 and from the videos I've seen, the 4 does a great job in any case.

It is a truly amazing device:

And since you live in the USA, you'd be able to order it directly from the site - which is a hell of a lot cheaper than ordering from one of the authorised dealers which is what I have to do as the shipping from the US is a bit steep, to say the least.

It all depends on how much you play sims - by the sound of it, you play them a hell of a lot, so it would be worthwhile.

Here's the link to the site if you want to investigate further:

TrackIR :: head tracking view control immersion for flight racing and action simulator :: TrackIR :: Premium head tracking for gaming

I've recently got into 'Rise of Flight', which is one of the best combat sims I've ever played and definitely the best WWI sim.
