Customer Review: Learn to land in a crosswind
Summary: 5 Stars
At the start of my fifth flying lesson, I made a frighteningly bad takeoff in a crosswind. I was pedaling completely the wrong way, and made a bad condition worse. It was clear I needed to develop some pedal skills without bruising anything more substantial than my ego.
The CH pedals work great on my no-name quad core homebrew Vista 64 box. Plug them into the USB, then install the CH Control Manager off CD. I leave the CH Control Manager program running - seems to work better that way. Anyway, when I resume from Sleep, I have to "Rescan" to make the pedals work - this takes a couple of seconds.
Build quality is good, and anybody who wants to really jump on the pedals real hard should reflect on whether they would want to do this to a Cessna. I do not have any problem with the pedals sliding around on the carpet.
Pedal skills come along quite rapidly. You will obviously start in calm conditions, then add crosswinds. Make sure you research what you are supposed to do with the controls to counter crosswinds. You set up with the stick one way and the pedals slightly the other. On the ground, pedal action is realistically delayed. I found that performing extended runway takeoffs on part throttle really helped make pedaling second nature. I'm happy to say that, starting from dangerously bad, I can now do perfect still-wind landings, and decent cross-wind ones. You will, too.
Amazon offers a package complete with the matching Yoke and the FSX software. It saves a small amount and is worth considering. For less than the cost of 2 lessons, this is a real investment for anybody learning to fly.
A quick note on the matching Yoke - works fine, my only complaint is that the Trim control is way too sensitive and difficult to use. Trim, though, is the easiest of the major controls to learn.
I did not compare (other than by reading the reviews ) the competing Saitek parts. These CH parts work fine for me.
Description of CH Products Pro Pedals USB Flight Simulator Pedals ( 300-111 )
Pro Pedals feature a realistic forward and back pedal motion for flying, as well as a pivot movement for driving games. They're a great companion to CH Product's line of joysticks and flight yokes. For flying, Pro Pedals work as rudders and toe brakes, while for driving they give you extra support and power to accelerate or brake. They're made to withstand the toughest competitor. Designed with rugged, durable components, Pro Pedals will last longer and endure more wear-and-tear than ordinary pedals on the market. Hook Pro Pedals up with your favorite CH Products joystick and take off!Get the most out of your flight simulator with the Pro Pedals USB Flight Simulator Pedals. These responsive pedals deliver a smooth, highly realistic flying experience where you control the plane's rudder with your feet rather than a joystick. These pedals let you feel accurate forward and backward sliding motion for rudder input to control yaw axis. Pressure-sensitive heel-toe motion gives you terrific feedback for differential toe braking control. Gain better, more realistic control of your virtual aircraft and take simulated flight to the next level.
Pro Pedals USB can also be used for driving simulation games.
