How to use TrackIR with ED?

You don't need to. TrackIR works out of the box with Elite Dangerous.

Just make sure you've updated your game profiles in TrackIR first and make sure "Elite Dangerous" is listed.

Everything else is just personal configuration to suit your head rather than "default".

Ah, figured it out. Thanks!
I had TrackIR on after ED had started. Quite finnicky to work through track IR, it's quite jumpy.

I wish I was English like my hero Tj.
Glad you got it working.

I love my TrackIR with Elite. It's a really awesome implementation and works flawlessly for the most part. Really improves immersion.
 
It should not be jumpy at all! I just use the default.

Make sure by looking at the graphics in the program that there are no interfering light sources and that your target is as centered as possible. You should see three green squares that move as your head moves and nothing else, especially red blobs. Then, make sure that the grid is calibrated, F12. After that, you should be A-OK. Just make sure you start TIR before you boot the program you want TIR in, i.e. ED.

Actually I have run TrackIR after ED is fully running and I'm flying inside ED too. Works without a problem. As soon as I alt-tab back into ED, TrackIR takes over.
