Despite the fact that my head is not moving, FreeTrack seems to think I am moving and the view is a bit shaky. It's exacerbated when I look down and to the right/left, to the point where I am chasing cockpit switches all over the monitor and it really slows me down. I have tried deadzones/smoothing on the curves but it hasn't done anything. I am really lost on anything outside the curves and I would like some pointers to get me in the right direction to smooth this jerkiness out so I'm not fumbling for switches in the cockpit.

Class : Apprenti Posts : 8 Registered on : 19/03/2013 Off line	Yes, model position and model dimensions are set accurately. Everything works well except for this shakiness when I'm looking down at side panels and trying to flip switches or turn knobs. I would think that setting deadzones would eliminate the shakes but for whatever reason it doesn't work.

Class : Apprenti Posts : 8 Registered on : 19/03/2013 Off line	I think I fixed it. I increased the smoothing on all axes to 200 and added a medium deadzone to some of the curves. It completely eliminated the shakiness, but there is a very slight delay in movement. I'm not sure if I can get rid of that or if I just have to get used to it. I'll try that other profile and post my model dimensions when I get home.
