Saiteks are wider by a fair bit than CH, IMO that makes them more comfortable.

The learning curve shouldn't be that steep.  Fly offline for a couple of hours doing basic flight maneuvers and afterwards you'll start to get a feel for the pedals.  In all honestly, it shouldn't take no more than a couple of days to get comfortable using them.

Well, I started but jumping right into a furball. At first it was frustrating, but after an hour or so I'm getting the hang of it. Now I just need to figure out what to do with my other free hand lol. Might be time to get a throttle :banana:

Definitely! A throttle is a must! How come you have managed so far without one?

My only issue with my current setup is that I don't use the dozen buttons on my stick base at all. I should have an extra pair of hands for them!

If you were using them CH pedals when I ran into you in the Beta yesterday I'd say you had the hang of them just fine!

BTW I use a full CH USB HOTAS as well (Combatstick 568, Pro Throttle & Pro Pedals).

A piece or two of velcro has kept mine where I put them for years. If on a carpet you only need the "hook" side on the pedals.

If your using CH pedals on a carpet Velcro will not stop it moving.

When I got my CH pedals they came with 'stops' which slotted in to make them car sim pedals, I superglue them underneath the pedals which stopped them sliding

Found them. When ever I have time I'm going to do the same. Gets anointing when your pedals have rotated 45 degrees to the left air right haha :rofl




Also thank you everyone for the tips and help.! :salute

My computer desk is up against a wall.  I put a small sturdy cardboard box on either side of the cable on my CH pedals, between the base and the wall.  Then, the base can't move forward or rotate.
