Sure makes my husband happy! by Patricia from Houston TX USA
Review: I bought these for my husband while he plays his flight game and judging by the increase in play time..........I'm thinking he is VERY pleased with the rudder pedal addition to his gaming skills!

Solid pedals by James from APO AE USA
Pros: Decent feel and extendable base platforms. Cons: May have conflicts with certain programs, particularly MS FSx Review: Everything is fine, only you will want to read-up on the internet as far as getting these rudder pedals to work with MS Flight Simulator X. You have to adjust some controll settings to fix a conflict with the brakes. Check it: http://www.saitekforum.com/showthread.php?t=10566

by donald from mooresville IN USA
Pros: make's for better & smoother flying. Cons: so far i have no cons. Review: These are the 1st pedals I have ever used, so I have nothing to compare them with, thats why I gave them 4 & not 5 stars. I love these pedals, I use to use a twist stick for my rudder. One of the things I like about useing these pedals, is that I'm not so hard on my stick any more, alowing me to have smoother flights. easy to set up, and they work great with my saitek X45 J/S.

by Carey C from Sibley LA USA
Review: It met expectations and works well with IL-2. The construction seems a little more sturdy than my previous set (same brand); would rate a 5 if were metal and very sturdy. I fly it with my toes to avoid putting as much pressure on it as you do actual rudder petals. I would recommend it to flight sim pilots.

I would buy this product again. by Kenneth from Hobart NY USA
Pros: Easily set up and work good. Cons: Had to fix a brace to keep them from sliding when using them. Review: I have had no problem with the rudder petals. They have improved my flying experience. Once they were set up they worked great.

ONE HAPPY KID by NATALIE from ANN ARBOR MI USA
Review: I looked all over for this before I finally found it on My Pilot. Boy do I have one happy kid now. He had the whole system just needed the rudder pedals. They work great and do the job to perfection for him. Great item.

A Good Buy by Steve Steinbrecher from Pollock Pines CA USA
Pros: Pretty much flies like the real thing Cons: Cheesy construction and confusion with set up of tow brake function Review: Easy to set up, and once tweaked and with a little practice, these rudder pedals work in a pretty realistic fashion. They (even at the highest compression setting) are a lot more sensitive than the real thing, but if you fly enough with them on a regular basis, they work fine. Brakes are REAL touchy, and there was confusion setting them up with the owner's manual, but checking on-line for fixes helped out. One gripe: I have a size 13 foot, and I always fly in socks, because the product, even with screwed to the floor, has a cheesy, plastic feel and I am always afraid I am going to break it.

More real than ever by Ralph from San Juan Puerto Rico USA
Pros: Great addition to my flight training Cons: Better floor grip so they don't slide Review: The Saitek Pro Flight Rudder Pedals have enhanced my computer flight simulation training! As an ultralight trike pilot, I have been able to duplicate the real trike pedals' function, into my ultralight trike flight simulation training (MS-FXSIM), with these pedals. By pressing the right foot pedal you get gas input and by pressing the left pedal you get brake input. Pushing the pedals to rotate them forward or backward allows the "SIM" trike to go left or right while moving on the ground! You can also adjust the pedal tension with the center knob. This makes the experience more real than ever!

by Dan from Singapore
Review: Great product so far, though you'll have to figure out a way of keeping it from slipping around. I just butted it against the wall behind and under my desk. That works. No problems with the drivers or the configuration software. Because of problems I've experienced with the X52 Pro HOTAS, don't expect support from Saitek if you do have problems.

Great! No complaints. by Will from Memphis, TN
Pros: Easy to mount, works flawlessly, adjustable pedal length, adjustable tension Cons: None Review: Does what it is supposed to do and does it well. I have had no problems and these pedals meet all my expectations. I love the adjustable tension to suit different aircraft. Great buy for the pilot looking for a realistic simming experience.

challenging but fair by Jody from Panama City Beach FL USA
Pros: works well with flight sim x and saitek yoke system Cons: programing and slips on carpet Review: Works well - but one item, had to fudge with the settings and programing to set controls. Out of the box the rudders controlled the rudder and ailerons all at the same time. The instructions are less than the easiest I have used. With some time and tweaking the pedals work great. About 2 hours to sort it all out. The unit also does slip some on carpet. I am sure I can find a solution with little effort.

A "must have" for the serious simmer! by Tom from Swansea MA USA
Pros: Very realistic feel and response. Cons: A little tricky to program. The toe brakes stayed on until you reverse the axis control and widden the null zones. Review: The perfect addition to your Pro Flight yoke and throttle quadrant.

Try it you will like it... by Dan L. from McGaheysville VA USA

Solid and spaced properly by Lawrence V. from Mesa AZ USA
Pros: smooth operation and more realistic spacing Cons: toe brake too sensitive. Review: I like the rudder spacing. They are more similar to the planes I have flown. The pedal operation is very smooth..much better than another brand I used. I have had problems getting the toe brakes to set up less sensitive. So far I have removed the brake action from the pedal and put it on a control switch...May be able to get them set properly as toe brakes with more effort on my part. I like the quality and adjustment feature.

by lawrence from Saratoga Springs UT USA
Pros: Adds realism Cons: lacks feedback feel of actual flight. Review: As a commercial pilot I found this product to be very realistic in its operation. I am enjoying my flight simulator more due to the more realistic experience. Not perfect but well worth the money.

Excellent Realism by Jettech from Rosemount, MN
Pros: Durability, ease of operation, smooth control, easy set up, adjustable pedal tension adjustment Cons: Not many. Requires some inovative thinking to keep it from sliding around Review: This is by far the finest set of rudder pedals that I have ever seen for the money. The tension adjustment allows you to add as little or as much resistance as you like. Required very little set up time. Not quiet plug and play but close enough. As a student I have always had a problem with runway alignment during takeoff, but these have allowed for some really great practice with p-factor and torque settings at maximum, they have really made a big difference in my flight training.

I would buy this product agin by Michael from Mt. Juliet TN USA
Pros: smooth movement very responsive Cons: could be a bit more rugged built but have had no problems Review: Owned CH pro pedals before. I have found these to be much more user frindly. The interface between the product and the ms flight simX program to be outstanding (plug and play).
