I use several tools with ED. Over the time I have switched between what I use, but here is currently what I run.

Voice Attack with a heavily modified KICS profile. I have it at the point that I can use it with or without the mic. So when I don't feel like using a headset I can still get the benefits.

ED Tracker. This one is new, less than a month old. But My god what a difference to this and other games such as War Thunder and CLOD.

ED Market Connector. I may not be trading, but this tool helps me contribute back to the community. It takes the Commodity Markets, Shipyard Data, Outfitting Data, and Station info and sends it all to EDDN. It gets activated every time I land at a station or outpost.

Trade Dangerous is my goto for trade route planning and for checking when I need to actually find some commodities. It also is where I can do a quick lookup of shipyard data.

Inara is my goto for keeping track of what I am flying and my ranks, achievements, Credits, and other information that can't be tracked anywhere else.

Captains Log is what I used in the past when exploring, and when I finally decide to make another trip out of the bubble, all my finds will be kept track of in this gem of a program.

When I am looking for things such as stations or commodities and the numbers don't add up, I use Thrudds and EDDB.IO to double check things.

For configuring ships, its Coriolis.io and that is it. I used to use ED Shipyard which is great, but Coriolis is cleaner and has more valuable information at a glance.

And lastly, when I am looking for new tools, or something else ED related, I use ED Codex. The best list of ED Things out there. Easier than searching forums, and if it is not in the ED Codex, then its google foo time. If all else fails, I ask on the reddit ED Sub.

Xbox one controller, and Trackhat Clip for headtracking.

Trackhat Clip is much cheaper than TrackIR and has worked really well for me. I bought mine with the camera from http://www.trackhat.org/
I bet there are reviews on YouTube.

Lots of different things here and nice to see. Surprised nobody said the DK2 in truth but I am sure there are quite a few running it. Trade Dangerous looks pretty cool and I had never heard of it before :oops:

FaceTrackNoIr with a 3 Poind LED (Delan Clip).

Nexus 7 with Trinus VR for home made Oculus Thrift (now not working as Android borked the Nexus with an update and no one will fix it as it is out of guarantee, a well known mess to many people)

T-Flight Hotas X with a Game Controller (for extra buttons and analogue sticks)

Voice Attack (when I can be bothered to make a new profile as I deleted the old ones)

Future additions:

Oculus Rift/HTC Vive

A dog trained to put his/her paw on my lap if the flat is on fire whilst in VR

A girlfriend for other stuff (don't think VR is quite there yet ;))

I run 2 screens - one with ED and a track IR - the second with inara and thrudds - with this tool kit I always have confidence to take on the vast reaches of space and the odd harmless sidewinder :)

Has anyone used both ED tracker and the track hat?
