Rudder pedals & headset

Postby djbozz » Mon Dec 06, 2010 11:38 am

"Hopefully" Ill be getting the Saitek Rudder pedals to go with my X52pro, also a headset & program to teach the PC my voice, Does anybody else use these?, how are they to use?, Can I program voice controlls in game like("flaps 1", "gear down") etc?, advice apreciated,

As you look at this stuff maybe also look in past threads in the "Homebuild Cockpits" forum section.

Multicrew Experience uses the default MS voice stuff itself.

I'd test the MCE demo with that machine with FSX running at the same time.  It might surprise you how heavy a load the combination of FSX and the complex voice software can be.

best,
