First complaint is that the seller is selling the product at £10 above the recommended MSRP, but as my Saitek Pro Rudder pedals had just didn't want to wait as the Amazon site didn't list an expected delivery date for rudder pedals at the standard MSRP.However as an initial review after a few hours use I can find little to complain about the pedals themselves.The pedals have an RSJ 12 Connector for connecting directly to the Thrustmaster T HOTAS 4 along with an RSJ 12 to USB adapter to enable you to connect directly to PC via USB should you want to mix and match to a HOTAS system of your choice.I am currently using this with a 3 year old Saitek X52 Pro HOTAS with no problems in Elite Dangerous.First thing to say is that this is the third set of rudder pedals that I have owned.

These are one of the least expensive set of pedals you can get, but far from the worst. They are almost completely made out of plastic as you might expect but they are more robust than they initially appear. As long as you don't use them while wearing walking boots they should be fine.The Pros: Good value for money compared to others on the market. They have toe brakes and the pedals slide smoothly. They worked straight out of the box I just plugged them in and calibrate them in the game itself with no need to download and install drivers (I use Windows 10 and the game was X-Plane 11).The Cons: The cable from the pedals is quite short so your PC needs to be on, or next to,

After my initial struggling with Elite Dangerous I slowly became more and more proficient and grew to love the game, something was missing though. Then I seen these and decided that is what was missing, it has been one of the best purchases I have made on a peripheral I have absolutely loved my time with it. The amount of immersion that is added is a game changer just like using a wheel on a racing game.Mine has worked perfectly the only gripes would be some creaking which I hear is pretty standard on flightsticks. And secondly the quality and materials is very toy like.. which is why it is sometimes referred to as "my first hotas" don't get me wrong nothing has broken, it just looks like a toy..

From someone who has been involved in flight simulation for over 15 years, this is my review of this product. All the reviews I have read, state that the pedals are too close together. This is in my experienced opinion rubbish. Let me please explain why. If you drive a manual car, the Brake pedal and clutch pedal are about 5.5 cm apart, and we all manage just fine. Using the clutch and brake at the same time is an important part of driving. These rudder pedals are not too close together at all, in fact the distance between them is perfect. It seems that when some reviewer states something, everybody jumps onto the band wagon and just follows the last review. So to conclude, the feel of these pedals is precise,

Bought this as a replacement for the standard T-Flight Hotas 4 which, like so many others, succumbed to the drift issue - where the controls would naturally drift the ship (or whatever it is you are controlling in-game) to the left of the right. Being an active member of the Elite Dangerous community I have spoken to many players that said they went through one of these per year(!!) - rather than do that, I decided on the Ace Combat 7 series of Hotas because it was constructed later. I hope (and pray) that it doesn't have the same build issues as the T-Flight 4 Hotas. Only time will tell and as yet, it is still too early to say whether it will. That aside,

Ok, these are one of the two affordable rudder pedal sets available on the market so you're not exactly blessed with choice. These are plastic with metal sliders but they do feel fairly solid and I don't feel like I'm in danger of breaking them unless I do something daft. They're plug and play and I had no issue with the PC (Windows 10) detecting them. The only downside I would say is that the pedals are quite close together and they could really do with being another six inches further apart.I must admit, I wasn't too happy forking over the money for these but I've wanted a set of rudder pedals ever since I first played FSX over a decade ago.

I will keep this short - I am a long time Flight Simmer and BiPlane PilotI bought this to use with my Thrusmaster Warthog Hotas Stick and Throttle and the DCS World Flight Sim.These are excellent great feel and accurate, very smooth motion.and travel with good quality feel to the unit.Flying with these make It quite simple to control swing on takeoff even without rudder trim dialed in on the P-51 and also makes it natural to sideslip and use crosswind crab and wing down techniques during approaches.Cons: bit too easy to find that your inadvertently applying rudder a stronger center intent feel would maybe help feel the natural center while you are busy,

The Pedals are great for precise movement in whatever type of game you are looking to play, I use this mostly in ARMA 3 and Star Citizen, and I can tell you it will make flying more precise, safe and fun! My only 2 issues with it would be the distance you have to sit back, its brilliant at an extended leg distance but the closer you get to your sitting position the harder it is to press and slide the pedals accurately. The other issue being my pedals seem to "turn off" when I shutdown the PC so I have to plug them back in again for my PC to pick them up even after a driver install.

The pedals fit great in the limited space I have by my pc but I can see what people mean about the spacing being a tad uncomfortable for men with bigger berries.Also the pedals require a deft touch with a very slight center detent you will have to get used to them but if you want pedals that wont tax your strength then the smart rails are great.Ive had them for a couple of days an the poti is holding up fine but years of use might yield differant results (Burned by the poti on the T16 twist breaking my reason for buying the pedals.)But all together my experiance is positive.

Okay... these are just okay..... for the money they are okay. I have had Logitech's and they broke over time.... bought these as a fast replacement.....hmmmm they are lightweight but strong enough.... not much of a center detent which is a good thing if you like to fly heli's.... but for sure they snag and judder... they seem to be easing up with daily use.... but had then for a few months now and still find them not having a very smooth input....pretty vital on heli's.... not so mych for planes.For the money though.... not so bad.

Good build, yes its made from plastic, but well constructed. Can slip on the floor a bit, but it is not a show stopper. If you have large feet (13UK) they fit, for even better comfort you can remove the back stop and just rest the balls of your feet on the paddles, comes with an Allen key.The controls are sensitive and will require in game adjustments (DCS World) and sometimes it's a little tricky finding the centre spot. Practice does make it easier, been using them now for 46 hours flight time. I would recommend.

These pedals are sturdy, relatively compact, and provide a good level of realism. Great for flight sims and upper air flying, lower air circuits and of course taxiing on the ground. Added fun and realism, also aircraft precision flying when mastered.They grip the floor well, theyve moved a little on a plastic - under chair - mat I have (floor/carpet protector), but not much.For me using FSX SE and Windows 10, these were plug and play - easy.Great quality, proportional control, great value and really good fun.

Suggest you change the resistance when playing ac7, for elite make sure you disconnect your controller and start the game with the hotas as it needs to be controller 1 to work (you don’t need to do this for ac7).There is some learning curve involved so I suggest you take some time to get used to it. Best setup would be to use hotas in separated mode and on a desk/table but you can use it on your lap (on sofa or bed) just make sure you have enough cable (I used a usb extension)

I bought this rudder pedal because the Logitech ones weren't available when I bought my yoke and throttle set. I've used Thrustmaster steering wheel and pedals for Euro Truck Sim 2 for years and always found them solid and reliable and genuine value for money, and this set seems just as solid, if not more so.Have only been using them for 24 hours but can't find anything negative to say - I'd recommend them and they plug into the USB on the Logitech yoke or into your PC.

Got this for the kids and I. Using it with Ace Combat 7 and Ultrawings. The suction cup on the joystick can be annoying sometimes because it doesn’t have enough grip for all the combat manoeuvring. But it’s a fantastic joystick nonetheless. Great to have the throttle and the steering separate.I have one issue with it, though. The weapon toggle (square) doesn’t work on the throttle stick, so I always end up using the ps4 controller for that. Not ideal in combat.
