Well I now have free track which is much like Track IR....made it from components I had lieing about!
Been working out some bugs......... almost there!
Running a playstation 2 eye toy (Cam Tracker), 120 fps hq cam with 2 directional IR led's.
Only had to purchase a 5 pk of 47 ohm 5% resistors from radio shack (99 cents) For the tracker clip ir led's.
Anyone wanting info on this let me know I have alot of resources!
Be on this weekend!
Ironing out the adjustments M8's!
Flown via the "Hat" since 98...dunno if I can be taught new trix

Re: SNAFU
Good work that man I was looking at some cheap ways to do the head tracking thing before the missus got me a TrackIR for my Birthday here's the Wii remote one i was looking at http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=Jd3-eiid-Uw
May have to have a go at the Wii remote to make a touch screen for the TouchBuddy interface http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=5s5EvhHy7 ... re=channel
And here's a nice DIY 3 point LED clip made from a rear light off a push bike.

Re: SNAFU
I seem to recall that someone on these forums wrote some smoothing software for free track.
"The marksman hitteth the target partly by pulling, partly by letting go. The boatsman reacheth the landing partly by pulling, partly by letting go." (Egyptian proverb)

I too am a Freetrack user. Homi once you get the hang of it (setting up the freetrack can take awhile) you'll never fly with out it.
