Author Topic: Question about CH pedals (Read 292 times)

Guys,
The POV on my old Saitek Cyborg finally crapped out. (Hence the recent flood of Check 6 calls) I'm ready to upgrade to the full CH setup, but I've got a question. The spacing on the pedals looks a bit tight for us taller guys (I'm 6'3"). I'm looking for feedback from any taller CH pedal owners. Any issues?

Thx

I have to admit that the tight spacing was my first reason to look for some other pedals after trying CH pedals. But I am about 5" taller, so it still might be ok for you.

I'm just about 6' and I've got the old gameport ones (2 pedals that rock, no sliding, but same width).

It's definitely not the most comfortable, but the reason they were wider in aircraft was because your legs had to go around the stick. If I had the $$$ I'd try out the Saitek pedals because they're much wider.

Geez Lusche, 6'8"

Which pedals did you finally settle on?

Thanks everybody for your inputs.

I'm going with the Saitek pedals.
