TrackIR 5 Head Keeps moving forward

[Javert]

Hi all,

I'm using TrackIR5 and I'm finding that after a while, my view keeps moving forward as if I have moved towards the screen, even when I haven't moved at all.

This happens about every minute or two and I keep having to press F12 all the time.

This doesn't seem to happen when I'm just using the TrackIR config utility, only when using ED.

Any ideas?

Yea, mine is the same. I don't think it's something that can be avoided. It de-calibrates itself ever so slightly every time you move your head more than those few degrees where it is able to be precise. It does happen generally (only you don't see it happen in TrackIR utility, because it's subtle.
I just have F12 mapped in VA and center the tracking once in a while.
