SmoothTrack: Head Tracker

As a former rw pilot of 22 years and avid flight summer in the past after a 10 year hiatus I broke down and got a new computer and msfs 2020. When setting up with latest hardware and some ancient the sim still didn’t feel real. As a past user of tracker ir I thought I would give this app a try. After a challenging setup mostly due to windows 11 idiot proofing thanks to the great help files included with the app got it up and running. I am not exaggerating that the realism of the sim went up about 80%! As a former user of tracker ir this does it all with no wires and no headset. With an iPhone stand I have my phone charging on a great almost unseen place to the left of my velocity yoke and this thing just works-perfectly. One of the best most useful add ins for flight simulator! Extremely happy!

App works as advertised, but doesn’t appear to be able to stay connected in the background (so won’t work if you also want to run an instrument panel or flight planning app simultaneously on the same device).

For someone without a dedicated set up and on a budget this app is a life saver. Never had a single issue and is so easy to use. Recommend to everyone getting into the sim world. Thanks Dev!

Works with ATS and Euro truck! Worth the purchase.

Great face tracking tool and responsive dev.

So far the app is definitely not bad but seems a bit buggy. I am using an IPhone 8 so that may be the issue but Im not sure. Basically the problem I have is that the app freezes when I try to interact with the axis sensitivity and/or the start/pause button. When this happens the tracking stops working and I have to restart the app to fix it. Its not a massive issue because I can use opentrack to edit sensitivity but it is pretty annoying still. I also find that when turning my head (yaw axis) the app will think I am also pitching my head down (causing me to look to the side and down in game). This same thing happens with the roll axis (when I “yaw” my head the app thinks i am “rolling” also. Anyways most of these issues are manageable with the right settings in opentrack, but any feedback from the developers would be greatly appreciated

I use this with MSFS and it adds so much. VR isn’t great as I need access to my notepad when talking to ATC and throttle controls. This adds that VR realism. The new update to account for camera angle helps so much.

A fantastic head tracker for 10 bucks. A game changer. Setup was pretty quick, I use it every day.

I’m using this for DCS and it is great! The tracking is smooth and it automatically connects to DCS as soon as I open the game. My only grievance is that connecting it to the pc can be a little annoying at times but it is well worth it.

I’m using this in USB mode with DCS and the A10C module. It works incredibly well. Follow the instructions on the support website to a T and it will work. I was previously using AI track and a PS2 eye, which worked ok - this is better, much better. Well worth the price. I’m so glad I tried this before shelling out the money for trackir.
