Has anyone else had a problem with centering your trackIR in WOP?

The tracking wasnt working at all (I Have a TrackIR 4 with pro clip) but after installing the new V5 software it does.
BUT when I hit F12 the view centers on looking at the right wing.
I have to turn my head to the right, hit F12, then hope that when I turn it back it will be close to centered.
I'm not sure if this is a WOP problem or something that I have to tweak in the naturalpoint software.

Any suggestions?

1. Any problems centering outside the game?
2. Are you fully up to date on patches?
3. Have you tried mapping the f12 key to your joystick and does that fix it?

I have mine mapped to my HOTAS and have not had a problem since the beta where they fixed a centering problem with a patch.

Yes, Tunes...I know what you mean.

It seems to be a bit harder to get it centered in this sim. In RoF, when I set it, it keeps the setting while in WoP it doesn't, at least for me. I have to fool around just as you describe and also use the mouse to get it centered and after that it might stay relatively centered or it might change when I start a new mission. I have the same TrackIR setup as you do, upgraded to the TrackIR 5 sw. I also have F12 mapped to my jostick although that shouldn't matter at all...F12 is F12. It works perfectly with other sims.

I still have to play with the setup to see if I can improve it. There must be a reason why it behaves like this and hopefully an easy solution since it is a bit of a pain to keep setting it.

In the beta Track IR re-centered on where the mouse view is centered. Maybe the mouse is getting nudged?

Hit 'V' to switch views, 'F12' to center TrackIR, 'V' again back to in pit, 'F12' again.
