Santa came through.  New Thrustmaster pedals.  I'll be the F4U falling.  Get some.

Thanks for the assists.

Merry Christmas!

Nice! Pedals are the best. You won't regret it once you get use to them.

I'm very happy with the Virpil base for my Thrustmaster sticks. It works with the Cougar as well as Warthog. Thrustmaster is finally selling replacement bases for the Warthog but the Virpil base is much better.

I'm using the Thrustmaster TPR pedals. I like them a lot. The unit is huge but the design doesn't fill up with dust and the pedals are smooth, easy to move, and precise.

I have always used a twisty from day one. I have never felt that I have been at a disadvantage or out flown because the other guy has pedals.

If it would increase my hit ratio or ability to complete menovers that couldnt be possible with a twisty I would switch.

I just don't log the hours anymore to teach those old dog new tricks.

I also got the Thrustmaster pedals a couple of weeks ago.
It does take a while to get used to, still learning how to use
brakes without crashing.

Calibrate both brake axis, don't land too fast, and when below flight speed on the runway hold the stick back.

Thanks, I’ll give that a try.

After touching down.... as you slow and pull back on the stick slightly, it locks the tail wheel so it does not spin-out/ground-loop on you. Of course that is on tail draggers only.

If you still have issues with it help is available. We do specific issues as well as basic training.

I did one session that was only on the double loop. Key point being both entry speeds.
