rudder pedals

need a new set of pedals, cant get the crosswinds, looking for a more wallet friendly approach atm.

was looking for the Saitek pro combat ones, but not sure if they even available now as cant see any for sale anywhere, only the normal pro ones, seems the seconhand market is nearly same price as new, that's fleabay for you.

or are the TM pedals any good, would match my warthog controls then.

its just for whirlybirds, dam hard flying just using the z axis on the throttle :)

I have the Combat Pro's there an alright pedal once you loose the center detent and springs. :D

It winll also depends what you fly the most.

I hear a lot of good things about the MFG's, I'd recommend if you can get a cheap usable set of pedals to separate the yaw out of stick input your wrist will be thankful and you flying will improve especially helicopters and save for decent pedals what ever brand you want. Or spring out for the better unit which ever make, straight up. ;)

I'm also looking at building my own pedals at this time mostly aimed at rotory wind style, like most things a WIP at the moment. :(

thanks frag, wow making your own, thatl be pretty cool, wish I could find a pair of the combat pros, don't seem to be any around, I would love the MFG but at the moment that's a no go, but later maybe

If I understand my on the back of a serviette calcs are about right then LB 250 MFB's verses LB 75. TM's.

See what others come up with, however I expect even a cheap set of pedals will help a lot.

Yes I am switching over to a Leo Bodnar BU0836X USB interface which currently does my cyclic and the old Frankensteined Logitech USB interface still does my DYI collective. :D

Are these the pedals?

yep that's the pedals, you will have t take pics to show us all :)

They aren't as pretty but I'd wager CH products would last longer/handle a bit more abuse than Saitek products. There's also the TM T-flight pedals to consider.

I do prefer the tm ones to Saitek to be honest, look better as well

You can also get them through Aliexpress. Beats all the plastic rubbish by miles!

I've had the CH pedals for many years and though the centering is a little jarring; I've had plenty of use out of them and they're still going.

Not meaning to awaken dead zombies...

Does anyone have experience with Thrustmaster TFRP Flight Rudder Pedals ?

For me, they work in an "all or nothing" mode with no way to proportionally move the rudder. The "tilty" function of the pedals won't work either.

Is there a good way to set these up?

Thanks

If you don't want plastic I have some VKB pedals i'll sell.
