Lucky Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 I had to give up my spot in line since my 14 year old Altima finally went belly up a couple of weeks ago. Planned on buying a new car in August but had to do it sooner then planned. Hopefully I'll be able to get a set later in the year. This is what I bought instead [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Lian Li 011 Dynamic Evo, Core i9 11900K @ 5.0GHz, Corsair H150i CPU cooler, Asus Prime Z590-A, Radeon RX6800 XT64GB, Team T-Force Delta DDR4 3600, Corsair RM1000X PSU, Win 11 x64 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Hammer- Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 I never thought that there is such a huge difference between my old Saitek Pedals and the MFG Crosswind. They are amazing and it feels like flying a new plane (A-10C).

audax Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 How long before your pedals were sent on their way did you get notified? I didn't get a mail after my pre order confirmation. I am not complaining, just hyped and that mail said that I could get my pedals in June. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

erjdriver Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 For heli flying - what happens when rudder force-trim is pressed and pressure is released on the pedals....do they stay in place or centers. Generally how is this for heli flying - compared to saitek pro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unknown Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 First, sorry for my bad english. How long before your pedals were sent on their way did you get notified? I didn't get a mail after my pre order confirmation. I am not complaining, just hyped and that mail said that I could get my pedals in June. I received a mail after ordering that i'm on the list. Heared nothing after that mail so i mailed Milan via his contact form on his site. He answered a couple hours later, very nice and fast response on a sunday! I also received a mail a week ago, they had/have some trouble with their cnc machine that will cause some delay, but i think/hope nothing big. Can't wait to get them, my simped f16 are slowly breaking apart. For heli flying - what happens when rudder force-trim is pressed and pressure is released on the pedals....do they stay in place or centers. They are not FFB pedals, so they will center.

MackTheKnight Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 Got mine yesterday. I'm so glad I bought these. Best flight-sim related purchase I've made since the HOTAS Warthog. I can actually keep the Huey stable in flight now. A feat I was never able to accomplish with the old CH Pro pedals. Also, the toe brakes are amazing compared to my old set. The mustang is much easier to tame on the tarmac, and on takeoff/landing. Well worth the wait and investment. Anybody who has doubts - rest assured, these are the best flight sim pedals you will probably ever purchase, and the build quality is top notch. Props to Milan - Thank you for a fantastic product! Keep up the great work! -Mack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flying Spanner Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Had mine a few weeks now, go with the Warthog perfectly, mind you as I'm more into helicopters, the Komodo controls might be the next purchase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spaceraver Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 I jumped on the bandwagon just on the review and ordered a set, never having owned or used flight pedals. Milan shipped out on the 23. They are currently in Bavaria. So right now i'm like a kid waiting for christmas, new years and a box of kittens. Should be nice to get the shark flying straight. Now there is only one thing missing from my setup.. VR goggles Anything with a Rotary Wing is fun and challenging. Use SRS radio.

narfnarf Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 I received my set this week (S/N 737). Assembly is easy, took me a moment to adjust the pedal angle. Software calibration is super easy too. And after a couple of test flights I'm very happy with the pedals. Coming from a set of worn Saiteks it like night and day. The smooth movement makes rudder input really natural. I'm 100% satisfied with those pedals (well, I'm looking forward to the alternative foot plates Milan announced in his newsletter, when I have those it is 100%, until then solid 99%).

Yurgon Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Just a short thread derailment. :music_whistling: Many of you have seen it already, we now have an MFG Crosswind Serial Number Database thread. Those of you who already have theirs, feel free to add your serial to the list over there. :) Okay, now back on topic. (Nothing new to add on my end, except that the pedals are still awesome and work like they're fresh out of the box :thumbup:). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronht Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Mine arrived this morning - Super easy set-up and calibration and easily mounted onto my Thrustmaster Wheelstand Pro base. About all I can say that hasn't already been said before is WOW!!!!!!! These things are a game changer! I can't say enough about how great these pedals are and I've been using SimPads for several years - My SimPads have been great, but I can't believe what a difference there is between those and the MFG's. Absolutely incredible product, well worth the price and the wait. Thanks to Milan for such a great product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
audax Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Can you post a picture of your pedals mounted on the wheelstand, please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronht Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 The MFG's have 4 holes already drilled for mounting. I only needed to use 2 holes to secure the MFG's to the base plate of the ThrustmasterPro Wheel Stand. The base plate was quickly drilled and the pedals mounted as you see here is a few minutes. They are very secure and are not going anywhere. I really love this setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spaceraver Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Really really pleased with mine. A buddy who has a CPL licence dropped by and after playing DCS on my machine for 10 minutes asked where he could get the pedals. :D Now I just need to make my frankenpit for gaming.

audax Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 (edited) The MFG's have 4 holes already drilled for mounting.

They are very secure and are not going anywhere. I really love this setup. Very nice, although I don't have a full base plate but just 2 "straps". I hope it will fit in the same holes that I drilled for the Saitek pedals :D Edited July 1, 2015 by audax Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
