Saitek or CH pedals? which are more FSX realistic

Postby motoadve » Thu Jul 09, 2009 9:02 am

My CH Pro pedals wore out.
I had them for 6 years and they started conflicting and now dont work anymore.
So Im looking for new pedals.

Which are more realistic?
CH or Saitek?

My CH Pro pedals worked fine over the years but felt too soft, unlike a real rudder.

I've never tried the Saitek pedals.. I've not heard anything bad.. I just don't like the looks of them.. they look fragile.

I too have the CH pedals.. also for several years..  If I end up getting  SIX  years use out of them.. I'll get another set without hesitating.

I recently traded in my CH pedals (gameport!!) after a good many years of service for the Saitek model; this after receiving the Saitek yoke/throttle as a gift.

How wore out?  CH has lots of spare parts available on their site.  You may be able to resurrect them.

It was acting up.
disconnected itself many times, I had to re install many times, sometimes was connected under windows and just didnt work.
Spent too many hours reconnecting .
And when it worked was wrong because the rudder will activate the differential brakes.

Then I open it up to see if I could fix it and 2 pieces just fell out and dont know how to put it back together
