I have a TIR3 and it can detect a large range of motion, TIR4 will most likely be even more advanced as well as being 6DOF(?), so stop thinking and start buying. ;) -- Cheers, Rod.

The sensor needs to be somewhere close in front of you, so the big screen's probably too far away to perch it on. http://www.rcsimulations.com/ is the place I'd buy one from. Nice bunch of people in my limited experience. Andrew McP

It's independant of the display you are using, no idea where you can buy it from in the UK, I'm in Australia. Steal a loaf of bread and come on over. ;) -- Cheers, Rod.

If you buy the addon, I thought TIR4 came standard with it? -- Cheers, Rod.

That is correct. TIR3 you would need to also order the Vector Expansion, TIR4 comes with it. -- Don Burnette
