Hiya all,
so as title suggests, I am disabled, currently bed bound but even at best still only manage in a wheelchair, because of this when I game I use a TV as monitor from bed and PC on desk. I use WAKE on LAN to turn PC on, use wireless keyboard and mouse too all simply so can game as I need to be in bed which is on the other side of my room. I have been loosing hours and hours flying and finding it really therapeutic however I find keyboard and mouse breaks the immersion and makes harder. I use to have a cheap low end thrustmaster however now I can’t use it as plugging it in across the room isn’t possible.
I was hoping that folks may be able to suggest either a good wireless option for controls and also would a Track-IR work from a meter or so away? or does it need to be close up. Just anything to make the game more immersive and easy to play would be huge.
I am sorry for going on, I just wanted to give some background incase helps but ultimately any fellow disabled flight simmers have any ideas or just other good folk who may be able to help me.
Happy Flying!
Hello mate.
First of all, I take my hat off to you and I admire you deeply.
Here you have me for what you need and I can help you.
the peripheries do not know which could go better in this case.
But if you want, I’ll share a cabin and we’ll fly anywhere you want.
With this application.

Great to see you are so devoted!
Have you looked into usb extenders? They’re cheap and allow you to do exactly what you are looking for now!
Hiya!
Thank you. That is very sweet of you and I appreciate the kindness.
I haven’t used Joinfs before… is it easy to use?
Hiya,
Sorry just replying now. Thank you for the suggestion. I have but ideally I’d avoid as I try to avoid cables everywhere due to pets and relying on carer to help plug in/move when not using however I think may be a way can mange so will look into it more.
Guessing they work with all the flight sticks that are MSFS compatible?
Hi how are things. You have here everything you need but then later to see if I can give you a video of how to connect and set the routes so that it detects your simobjects and libraries. I’m sorry for the language I speak Spanish. Manual for JoinFS
