DCS F16 First Time Trying Realistic Head Movement

A viewer told me about the realistic head movement feature, I had no idea this was a thing. Shout out to WaaHelp for letting me know about this feature. Recorded on Growling Sidewinder. To activate this feature it's windows button and F1.

Interesting! Along with LCtrl-F1 it creates a much heavier sense of inertia. I just tried it in the F-4E and it definitely has a big effect on how the in-game pilot view moves around during hard maneuvering.

I agree, I didn’t even know that feature existed before someone told me about it.

It has been a while, windows key and F1 got it working for me. I’m still not sure how I feel about it but there is a difference for sure.

Are you trying to use the ground to break the locks on you?
Also where's the realistic head movement?

[@vandervoort88]

I always try and use the ground, got a little too greedy at the end of the video though. The realistic head movement really needs to be tried, it really does change the way it feels to fly.

Hi flying in the Hornet, I don't notice a difference with track ir. Is it supposed to make it different?

[@vandervoort88]

I haven’t tried it yet in the Hornet, I’m guessing it should be the same for all planes.

[@hyiv]

@@vandervoort88 can you describe what exactly it does, and it works with track ir?

[@vandervoort88]

@@hyivit’s like your head moves around the cockpit when making manoeuvres with the stick. You can see the HUD not staying straight when I’m turning in the video.

[@SurprisedPikachu247]

For immersion, or does it give a tactical advantage?

[@vandervoort88]

@@SurprisedPikachu247I do not believe there is any advantage, this just seems to change the feeling of the plane when flying.
