Rudder Pedals...

Postby Fozzer » Sun Mar 28, 2010 5:16 am

Hello Chums...

Anyone who is using the Saitek (or CH) Rudder Pedals...>>>

Pedalling!

Is it possible to disengage the coupling linkage between the pedals to use the same pedals for Driving Simulation; ie, independent "Accelerator and Brake", instead of linked, alternate action, "Rudder" use?

Cheers!

Paul...18 Wheels of Steel...and and twin Air Horns!... ;)....!

"Rubber Duck...over and out"... 8-)...!

If you mean making one move and the other not at the same time, not sure. Maybe if you open it up and do a little adjusting.
Why not use toe breaks for that tho?

The giant dial in the middle appears to control the dampening to make it easier or harder to push the pedals. I'm not sure if that can fully lock up.

One of my favourite questions about this bit of hardware is 'do you need these to control the brake and thrust of your plane?'.
