Thats correct, the instructions for the Aimtrak clearly state that the gun will lose accuracy if the player moves to a different firing height unless re-calibrated.
The video actually makes the problem appear worse because the gun constantly re-learns its location and applies correction, but in order to prevent jumping, the correction is remembered and only applied when the gun is pointed off-screen. In the video he moves around the room while still aiming at the screen so the gun does not have an opportunity to apply any correction.


pbj:

As always, taping a wide angle lens to the front of the Top Gun improves accuracy and reduces needed distance.

Yup, agreed, I am new to CP building, and I have had a few problems, Andy has answer all questions I have had for him very quickly.  Currently I am in a CP layout test, while I finalize plans for my full cab, and I will absolutely order remaining parts from Andy, service is excellent, quality is very good (granted I don't have a lot to compare to, but I am pleased with everything - well except my button layout, but that isn't on Andy).
