Track IR Order# 18285

Post by PanzerMeyer »

I just ordered my Track IR 3 Pro! Woohoo.


Very shortly will the days be gone when I have to fiddle about with my keyboard in order to pan my view around the cockpit. I also look forward to using TRACK IR with my racing sims. :lol:

Have to admit, I'd be buying the '4'!! 8) Especially, if I was buying now.

Well, the fact that everyone that has bought or is ordering a TIR4 is selling their TIR3s, I can only assume that a TIR4 is better than the TIR3? I have heard a lot of good reviews about the new TIR4. I suggest looking into the TIR4 and if it's better, see about cancelling your TIR3 order and upgrading to a TIR4?

field of view of the receiver is one difference... 33 vs 46. sample rate may be even higher with the 4 pro than the 3 pro.

I could've sworn SimHQ did a review and they mentioned some things like better centering and so on.

And of course, you should check out the NaturalPoint website too. Probably full of hype about how much better than TIR3 it is, but sift through the crapola and get to the tech data, that should tell you where you stand mate.

LOL!! You never fail to make me laugh out loud. Actually, I've found myself using some Brit words in my everyday vocabulary recently. Words like "bloke" and "bar steward" but my absolute favorite is BOLLOCKS. :lol:

Oh yes! Never fails to raise eyebrows that one!! Especially when someone is expecting you to produce some sort of contradictory statement to justify your own motives, and after they finish telling you how it is, as they see it, you simply retort - BOLLOX! You're talking . . . . .absolute BOLLOX! :lol: 8)

I think most people here only know it from the Sex Pistols album...that was the first time I ever heard it!

Personally, I always found it funny that "bloody" was considered a curse. It's like, what's the big deal? Other than it being inaccurate in a literal sense...

Erm, no mate!
On January 30, 1972, soldiers from the British Army's 1st Parachute Regiment opened fire on "unarmed and peaceful" civilian demonstrators in the Bogside, Derry, Ireland, near the Rossville flats, killing 13 and wounding a number of others.

Here are two links, not necessarily the ones I would choose to fight my case for, but it gives you the basic storyline you're after. Let me assure you that it's not a simply cut and dry case of what is printed in those articles, as anyone who's ever been involved in urban warfare can testify. And let's be honest how "innocent" can you be, if you're outside in the middle of a riot area?! :shock: :roll:

Well after going to Oxford for a semester, I never got over the habit of saying "bloody hell." Don't know why, I just like the sound of it and found myself using it often to describe or comment on life's inane annoyances.

The swear word most often used in my house is 'bugger'....made me laugh a lot when i was watching Stargate SG:1 on Channel 4, to see O'Neil describe the Replicators as 'little buggers' :)
