  1. Description of the issue:
    Track IR is bugged. When in the cockpit, I center it, but each time I move the head, it doesn’t come back to the center. Quickly it becomes totally wrong, to the point of me looking backwards. Recalibrating doesn’t solve it. I have to open the camera menu, cockpit camera, and reset it there. But it quickly ■■■■■ again to the point that I can’t fly in the cockpit. The shifting is not so strong if I fly in external view.
    Also, in the main menu, the earth globe reacts to TrackIR. It soon becomes totally mad, with the globe spinning like crazy.
    In the settings, under TrackIR, it’s written “Tobii”, which is not the system I have. I have TrackIR but I can’t select it.

  2. Did you remove all your community mods/add-ons? If yes, are you still experiencing the issue?
    I have no mods, no add-ons.
