Title: A New Rudder Pedal Choice
Post by: phishnut on October 02, 2002, 01:42:02 PM

Just saw a link to these rudder pedals on simhq.com saying that the first batch is shipping out.  They're expensive but it looks like the quality can't be beat.

Realsimulator.com page listing price of new rudder pedals (http://www.realsimulator.com/html/ruders.htm)

These have been posted here before but beside that the suggested retail price of €1,286.00 (Right now the US dollar price of $1268.14 using a conversion of 1 EUR = 0.986109 USD) they have priced themselves outside of the majority of flight simulation people. Sure they will sell a bunch but I will not rush right out and order mine. It would take me over a year to save up the cash to buy something like that and I can think of several other things I need more than I need those. Stuff like food and clothes for my son and a roof over his head.

If I had a son I'd sell him for the money to buy a set.  Unfortunatly I don't.

Maybe in the next rev of my cockpit, when I'm looking for ways to make it cooler.
