No dongle, no clips, no extra hardware. Your device streams head motion to OpenTrack on your PC over Wi-Fi and then feeds it straight into OpenTrack-compatible sim. Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 has option for direct connection with Dynamic POV add-on, available in the ingame Marketplace - available even for Xbox and Cloud Gaming users. Just pair smartphone with your PC or console and enjoy the freedom of flight! THREE WAYS TO TRACK • TrueDepth camera (6DOF) — full head position and rotation with depth-accurate precision. Lean in, move, and look around naturally. • Front camera (6DOF) — face-based tracking for devices without a TrueDepth sensor. • AirPods motion (3DOF) — smooth head rotation using Spatial Audio head tracking. Works with AirPods Pro, AirPods Max, and AirPods (3rd & 4th generation). • Combine modes — use the camera for position and AirPods for rotation at the same time. FINE-TUNE EVERYTHING • Enable or disable any axis: X, Y, Z, Zoom, Yaw, Pitch, and Roll. • Per-axis response curves with a live preview graph. • Adjustable max input and output distance for every axis. • Sensitivity, smoothness, and per-axis Reverse. • One-tap Re-Center to reset your neutral head position anytime. • Zoom axis to lean in on the instruments.
