Thrustmaster Pendular Rudder Pedals

Pros: Vastly more comfortable and precise then than entry or mid level pedals, the parallel sliding ones. They allow much better control and are more satisfying sim experience.Cons: Can't fault it. If I was really picky, I would like to see a few accessories for options to stop it sliding on the carpet, but I've done this myself with a few nuts and bolts.

By far the best rudder pedals on the market for any flight simulator. The entire unit is made of metal and is relatively heavy. Very linear feel, fully programmable, toe-brakes work well and easy to setup/hookup. If you're going to spend a lot of time flying, don't settle for a cheap set of pedals. You'll thank yourself for getting these. They're expensive but you get what you pay for.There is an option to permanently mount the base so the unit doesn't move. It does have feet on the bottom but still slides on carpet. If you have carpet and don't want to drill holes into your floor, be creative and make a plywood base with a larger footprint so that it can be jammed/wedged against something stationary. Or place it on a slip-resistant mat made for carpet.

Extremely high quality rudder peddles. I am coming from the TM T.Flight rudder pedals and the CH rudder pedals. One major issue both had was not centering and a lack of fine input. When attempting to take off in DCS tail dragging ww2 aircraft using the previously mentioned pedals the planes would flop around and swing wildly with even minor inputs. With these peddles tiny inputs feel very fluid, the planes are easy to control and feel much more realistic. I have the whole Thrustmaster set now, the rudders and HOTAS warthog stick and throttle. My simulations feel like the real thing, no adverse effects from any of the controls which makes me focus more on the enjoyment of flying than the calibration of my equipment.Pro's-High quality construction made from all ... MoreExtremely high quality rudder peddles.

Your feet sit on the floor, like a real plane. To use the brakes you lift your legs and push on the brakes. I feel like this helps keep me from resting my feet on the brakes and accidentally adding inputs that can cause the plane to yaw on the ground unexpectedly. The resistance makes it feel like these are attached to a real aircraft's cable system, but sharp or hard inputs will make them move if they aren't nailed down.Conclusion-If you spend a lot of time in flying simulators and already have the HOTAS warthog get these to complete your experience. Be ready for a learning curve. I have owned many pedals and can tell you that they don't tend to last more than a year or so with use, these feel and look like they will last a lifetime. If you are having trouble with your rudders staying centered don't go out and buy more cheap ones, just buy these, i feel like i would buy 5 cheap sets of rudders before these wear out.
