USB please. Prefer CH but will consider Saitek etc.
-
If you are looking for new try Amazon. I got mine (CH Pro Pedals) for $100 plus shipping 2 yrs ago and have loved 'em ever since.
-
Provantage.com for CH.
-
Try the muppets forum, there might be members that have extra stuff lying around.

Provantage is where I got my first set, but they seemed to be in short supply last I looked. They had a packaged deal of peds w/ around the world software, but there was no mention of them being USB or Gameport and there's no picture or product description. When I bought pedals from them before it was very straightforward but I don't feel like risking it with this one. There's a handful of other places to buy new but I figured I'd try looking for decent used stuff from AHer's first, now that we have this cool board. Already emptying out my wallet on the pc build.

If they are New CH Pedals, they have to be USB, CH does not make the game port version any more.

I know that. But it's unclear if it's new or something that's been sitting in a warehouse for years which is why I'm avoiding it. The main description says "Their complete line of USB and Gameport controllers". The product specs sheet is blank, and they're listed for only $72. No product reviews on it. Provantage was cheap before, but that's at least $30 less than the other cheap listings. I believe I've seen other "New" versions being sold as this bundle that were gameport, at least on EBay. When I bought my old set of pedals from them three years ago, it specifically said pro usb. So I'm hesitant. Like I said, rather buy from another AHer anyways.
Maybe I can look up the Manufacturer Part# 300-111ATW...that does bring up pro usb pedals in google.

I understand. CH only sells their product in lots. Rudder Pedals come in a box of 4, sticks are in boxes of 6 as well as the throttle. This is the main reason I don't carry them any more.

How did they break? If they popped off track, you can remove the bottom panel and snap them back in place. If you ask them nicely, Saitek will mail you for free a reinforcement kit so it won't happen again (along with instructions). I got my kit but figured I would wait for it to happen again before I messed with them. Shortly after, my wife left me and took a bunch of stuff with her (including the kit). Saitek won't sent me another, so I fixed mine by getting a bit creative with some short small bolts and some epoxy.
