Saitek Pro Flight Rudder Pedals 
2008-09-28
Just being a biginner at Flight Simulation, I wanted to upgrade my experience from just a joystick. I read many reviews and went with what the majority of them I read suggested. I decided on Saitek over CH. I have absolutely no cons at all. Amazon was the cheapest price I could find,it was delivered in good shape by UPS on the day it was supposed to be. Makes FSX much more realistic!
A very good addition to the Flight Sim experience 
2008-08-11
I have had no "lock-up" problems at all, and I find the construction of these pedals adequate, if not excellent.
I might be able to relate to some of the criticisms if I were into "slam-the-stick, jam-the rudder" combat sims, but for my general aviation sim use, they are fine.
I have a minor problem with the toe brake sensitivity and brake lock up, but I haven't experimented with the settings to any great degree, and I'm sure the solution is in there somewhere.
Used on X-Plane

I installed the rudder pedals/brakes for X-Plane on my MAC with the Saitek X52 Pro. I had no problems with the calibration. I highly recommend these Saitek products.
Not flimsy at all 
2008-05-01
I debated about these pedals vs CH and decided
to go Saitek because I liked the design better.
There was a reviewer who called these flimsey,
thats absurd unless maybe you are 300lb and
try standing on them. In a real aircraft the
pedals are something you operate 'delicately',
do the same with these and you won't be disappointed.
I started using these with single prop GA craft,
and now have joined a VA and am flying regional
jets, the one problem that I had to contend with
is the base will slip on the carpet, its just
something to plan for dealing with.
Given the same choice now I would come down exactly
the same, these are the best pedals in their class
IMHO.
Don't waste your money 
2008-04-06
I've been a sim pilot since the days of ATF in the eighties, and in the real world all my life.
The first pair jammed/locked up after 8-10 hours use. The second pair jammed/locked up after 5-6 hours use. The third pair jammed/locked up after only a single hour of use. I feel these pedals are not made of the right materials to make them a practical, viable product. My advice is, don't waste your money.

Product performs as expected. Doesn't mimic the rudders of a real airplane exactly but close. If looking to log actual flying time this setup isn't for you.
Saitek Pro Rudder Petals Are Great 
2008-03-02
I am very pleased with the quality and feel and the way they work in FSX. It has greatly enhanced the flying experience to make it much more realistic.
stuck in one position immediately out of box 
2008-02-19
Took them out of the box just now and, with my hands, moved the pedals as they would normally move. They immediately got stuck in one position. The tension screw in the center will not move, it is also stuck. Plan on sending them back.
Saitek Flight Sim Accessories 
2008-02-01
I have the Saitek Pro Rudder Pedals, X-52 Flight Control System, and Flight Simulator X. All these products are great, except for one thing on the Pro Rudder Pedals. For the pedals, if you are on hardwood or vinyl flooring, you need some double sided foam tape or some other tape because the velcro set that came with it, the adhesive is very strong and actually pulled up some of my vinyl, but other than that the pedals work great! The X-52 FCS is great too because it has so many programmable buttons, knobs, hat switches, and toggles and it has separate throttle and joystick components which it very realistic and fun to use! I highly recommend not getting the PRO version because you pay $100 more just for a higher tension spring on the joystick and a black paint job. These products work great and are very fun, however I recommend buying the complete bundle of Saitek Pro Flight Rudder Pedals, X52 Flight Control System, and Flight Simulator X for $260 with free shipping from DELL.com Love Amazon, but I also love the best deal too. Hope this helps!
Great pedals 
2008-01-19
These are some great pedals. They have adjustable tension for pedal movement. You can adjust the size of each pedal to fit your feet. Very smooth action. No complaints!
