• Toebrakes work perfectly in MS CFS2 and MS FS2002

  
  By AHJ0U4V74OVIP on 2002-10-02
  Under controller assignments 'assign axis' both Microsoft FS2002 and CFS2 menues allow assigning the up and down movement of the pedals to the toebrakes, right and left. Pushing (forwards and backwards) on pedals moves the rudder. It all works perfectly giving a variable analogue brake, the harder you push the more brake you apply. Taxiing the plane using rudder and brakes together works smooth and is easy to control. I velcroed the pedals to a large plywood sheet and attached the sheet to the desk legs with small angle brackets and machine screws. A large sheet so I could later move the pedals around to different positions on the board.

  I use this setup: Fighterstick USB, ThrottlePro USB, Pro Rudder Pedals USB, all CH branded. All 3 of these combine with CH's software to make one huge virtual device. So if you then go to Windows control panel's game control applet you see 1 device not 3. That one device has six axis and 32 buttons! Never calibrate it there (doing that will screw it all up). Instead ONLY calibrate it in the CH software.

  I assigned those six axes to: 1 HorizStickX 2 VertStickY 3 Wheel on the stick (Fuel mixture lean/rich), 4 Throttle, 5 Right brake, 6 Left brake. FS2002 would let me assign them to other controls if I had prefered).

  So far no problems with these fine CH products.
  
  

• Good product--limited use

  
  By AR2DE47VCY1C8 on 2001-11-01
  

  
  I have a new Gateway 1.8 GHz computer, with 512 MB of RAM and my older Flightstick Pro was reluctant to work with the new machine, although it and the Pro Pedals both worked fine on the old AMD K6 (350)with Jane's WWII Fighters and other games.

  So, I ordered a new pair of CH Pro Rudder Pedals for USB port connectors. Also a new Flightstick Pro USB. The Flightstick immediately worked fine, but Jane's WWII Fighters does not support the USB rudder pedals. Unfortunate, because in my opinion Jane's is the best simulator game around. Microsoft's Combat Flight Simulator 2 works fine with the USB devices, but you must go into settings after the game is running and set the assignments for the rudder pedals. First, remove all the assignments that may be currently assigned to the rudder pedals (typically ailerons and elevators --X and Y axes) and scroll down to rudder function and change assignment until it shows the Z axis (slider). The throttle will also show the Z axis. Don't worry about the apparent duplication. Both are sliders and both will work.

  In a nutshell, the rudders work except for the toe brakes. So far there is no application (game) that supports CH's toe brake on the market, but they assure us that some will come along in the near future.

  I like CH's products, perhaps because I've used them for years. I like the sliding function of the rudder pedals, which simulate an airplane's pedals very well. It's just too bad that they are ahead of the market, with a product that doesn't work on the older games. A solution looking for a problem.

• Very realistic for $100: lets me practice the real thing!

  
  By A3SPKEPMPNJUVY on 2004-01-27
  PERFORMANCE: Flight Simulator recognized that I had both pedals and the yoke installed when it started up. I selected a Cessna 172 at JZI (pilot talk for Charleston Executive Airport on John's Island, SC) and gave the system a try. My immediate thought was "Man! These pedal springs are light!" I took off my shoes to give me a better feel to start off with. My other thought was that the toe brakes are also very light, and they have more travel than I am used to on a real plane, a compromise of being able to use these pedals for driving as well.

  Teething Pains. I managed a reasonable roll down the runway, using the pedals effectively (I thought) for rudder control. But once I was in the air, the rudders were no longer effective. Back on the ground the differential brakes didn't seem to be working correctly. Even with my feet off the pedals, the differential brakes were constantly coming on. THEN...I tried several times to set the sensitivities within Flight Simulator, hoping I could set a null zone to keep the pedals from being applied when I wasn't pressing the toe brakes, but each time I tried this the system seemed to reset the settings to the defaults. It turns out that I had forgotten to disable the auto-rudder feature of Flight Simulator. The rudders are effective on the ground even with auto-rudder turned on, but differential braking is affected when you turn the yoke. Auto-rudder activated the differential brakes every time I turned the yoke side to side, which made me think the pedals were not properly set.

  Learning Curve. It took a few hours for my feet to remember how airplanes turn. To turn left, you step on the left pedal, and you step on the right pedal for a right turn, naturally. Maybe so, but we had a few trips off the runway before I could convince my dogs to cooperate.

  OVERALL IMPRESSION: Ultimately the pedals worked great. The sliding action is very realistic, and they enable me to perform all sorts of maneuvers that just can't be done without them, like a full power takeoff in an Extra 300 aerobatic aircraft (so much power that without rudder controls the torque pulls you off the side of the runway!). I was also able to do full slips on landing, crosswind corrections, even aerobatics with vertical tail slides for almost 100 feet. See my website for a few photos of these great rudder pedals in action (I won't post my site, but you can find it by looking up my name).
  
  

• Usefulness limited by poor marketing decision

  
  By A10QGX03JHNHJT on 2006-04-27
  As confirmed by CH tech support, they have decided to make their products incompatible with other manufacturer's products. Trying to get me to spend an extra $100+ to replace my existing excellent Logitech joystick just to get their pedals to work is not a good way to get extra business. Instead, I'm sending these back. Hopefully, they will learn (as many others in the industry have) that trying to lock customers in to buying only your products doesn't get you more customers in the long run. Most people will choose a non-proprietary solution when they can.
  
  CH tech support:
  "You are correct it was a marketing and sales decision to have Control Manager only combine our controllers. We of course are a business and would like to make a profit as well as produce quality product, so we do such things to prompt potential customers to buy our products. There are no future plans for allowing Control Manager to combine other brand controllers. "
  
  

• Must have for the serious flightsimmer

  
  By A2Z221S86FJMJQ on 2006-03-23
  This review will talk about both the CH Rudder Pedals and the CH Flight Yoke USB.
  
  I finally got around to purchasing these rudder pedals from Amazon after accepting that I was NEVER going to find this item in stores. (...)
  
  Getting to the point...these pedals are a must have for serious flightsimmers...especially if you own Microsoft Flight Simulator and like to fly general aviation or the large commercial heavies. I also purchased the USB CH Flight Yoke for $99.74; the difference these 2 items make to the simming experience can't be stressed enough. If you ever got the guilty feeling after mastering the greased landing with the Boeing 747 or other heavy aircraft (the feeling that it's unrealistically easy), then this is the next level. It takes a lot more concentration and coordination to master flight using yoke and rudder as opposed to just a joystick or keyboard...just keep your hands off the yoke while going down the runway or taxiing, and you should be able to keep things in order! You may also consider purchasing the CH Throttle; that's going to be next on my list, because using the throttle controls as they are postitioned on the yoke are a little inconvenient for some aircraft that require constant changes in throttle position.
  
  Overall, I'm satisfied with the construction of the pedals; they weigh in at around 6 pounds and feel fairly solid and sturdy. The motion is fairly smooth with the application of both rudder and toe brakes. They work well. Not much more you can say about that. The same can be said about the construction of the yoke...fairly solid considering. I would like to have seen a little less tension on the yoke personally. Unless you are trimmed close to overtrimmed status, you have to give it a good pull to get airborne. I haven't studied it long enough to see how that REALLY compares between heavy versus light aircraft. But again, I think that only speaks to the construction of the unit and the strength of the clamp setup; pulling back on that unit with a fair amount of force and the unit doesn't budge from the desk. The yoke may take some getting used to based on where it will sit on your desk...in my case, there is about a half an inch beneath the fastened clamps to allow for my slide out keyboard tray, which was enough space in my case. I could see a potential problem in that area for others.
  
  I've read about complaints with the clamp system on the yoke, but I'd like to meet the guy that can think of a better solution to keep the unit stationary on your desktop...no problems with my particular desk and the clamps. What I've read is that people with lips or other unperfect edges may have problems since the surface area of the clamps is small. Again, not a problem with my particular desk. Another con that I read about and can somewhat concur with is the trim quality. I find myself having to adjust the elevator trim more frequently with changes in speed than with my joystick...on approach this can be viewed as a nuisance or part of the greater challenge. I'll have to give it some time to decide on that one. It may be that it's just easier overall with a joystick. I was looking for more realism and a greater challenge when I purchased the yoke and rudder.
  
  Installation was a breeze in Windows XP; just plug them in and they are ready to go. They come with a cd with any drivers that may not be installed already, and also games (so, I've heard...MSFS is my favorite past time, probably wouldn't fly anything else that I don't already own anyway). Another good thing about this unit and MSFS is that it is recognized as a separate controller. I have used the pedals in combination with the flight yoke as well as my Saitek X52 Flight Control system when I needed a joystick and not a yoke for flying fighters or even general aviation aircraft that have sticks and not yokes.
  
  Finally, both the yoke and rudder are a very good investment for the hobby. You'll find yourself enjoying the hobby more and actually steering clear of the autopilot controls. Hope this gives you some things to think about.
  
  
• If you are a serious flight-sim fan, you must have these!
  By A3KMUHGAZME8VN on 2004-12-07
  I use this product with Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004 and have no problem with it. As a licensed pilot, these are possibly the best add-on I have ever bought to make my PC feel more like the real thing.
  
  I don't know about using them for driving sims as a brake and accelerator ( I have a Logitech Wingman FF wheel that I use for that) But for flying sims, these are great.
  
  A must have for any die-hard flight sim fan!
  
  
  
• You get what you pay for...
  By on 2002-11-19
  Ok, before we go in depth, remember this inequality(or whatever it is) CH Produts = The best quality out there.
  These are the best. They are so durable, you ould probably drop them from the 10 story of a skysraper and nothing would happen. The problem: You have to be a flight sim freak to use them. The package says you can use them as pedals for cars, but forget that (unless you drive witha joystick). This is because most steering wheels either come witha pair of pedals and the wheel only works with them, or the game nly supports one controller.
  So, dont complain about these not working as standalone controllers. They were not supposed to !!!! They were suppossed to be part of a HOTAS(if you dont know what that means, DONT BUY THEM). However, if you are a flight sim freak, and want simulation to the edge of the envelope, you will NEED these.
  
  
• Very Nice Pedals.
  By A1I4A7LUQEMAKM on 2005-10-24
  I bought these pedals from Amazon using the free super savings shipment but received the pedals in the mail the very next day. I bought them for my Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004 and they work great with it! Before buying these, I just used a joystick for the simulator until I spoke with a pilot who told me that he read in his aviator magazines that if you get rudders and a yoke, the simulator is can be very close to the real flying experience.
  
  Well, I have only been behind the yoke and pedals of a small plane once so I can't compare it to that. But I do know that these pedals have greatly increased my satisfaction with FS2004 and gives me much better control of the planes. The pedals feel like they were built to last and work really well. I highly recommend them to increase your flight simulator experience. I also later bought the CH Products Yoke from Amazon and along with the pedals, I am a happy customer.
  
  
• CH's Rudder Peddels Work Great!!!
  By on 2004-07-28
  If you like to fly than CH can provide great products for Flight Sim pc games. I was amazed that you could buy these $51.00 cheaper then at any store! CH provides for you great working rudder peddels. You have amazing taxing control on ground and good control in the air. I ordered my Peddles with Free Shipping and as promised, they came 5 days.
  The first time I tried them, as said before worked great! I released the barking brakes and moved the throttle forward. I was really bad with the peddles at first but I got the hang of it. They're really easy to slide back and forth and the toe brakes are easy to push.
  Now flying is easier and funner!!!
  
  
• Realism
  By A24NN70EK8XFZH on 2004-11-07
  If you want realism, you can't get enough from just a joystick. These pedals are not just ordinary pedals. You will be amazed when you use these for flight simulator. They help me make those long banks, and now I can even taxi successfully onto the runway. The brake feature only makes these pedals better. When I first plugged the pedals into my computer, they were installed right away! If you like flight simulator, don't leave an experience like this behind you.
  
  
• GREAT
  By A4PR9Y8KJK6IL on 2005-01-21
  Really great pedals!!! Make sure you get CH;s yoke. A MUST! The only thing is that the rudder pedals are really sensitive and do not require much moving in FS2004 in the air. Overall: Best of the Best!
  
  
• Simply plug and play
  By A2S88FMP1LJ1XK on 2006-01-30
  I received the CH Rudder Pedals for Christmas 2005, and I am using them MS Flight Sim 2004. The rudder pedals are very easy to install and configure. They are very durable and "very" sensative. I especially like the toe brakes and the ability to perform tight taxi turns with the pedals. There's nothing like being too high for an approach and being able to deliver hard left rudder and full right stick to slip the plane into a proper approach. To me, flight simulation without rudder pedals is like living in a two-dimensional flying world.
  
  
• Nice construction, poor customer support
  By A77A6S7OV51XX on 2005-09-27
  Using these pedals with FS2004, I found that the rudder controls work quite nicely but the toebrakes are just too sensitive. CH Products has some software that will moderate pedal movement to soften the touchiness, but their customer service is very unprofessional, almost as if an 8 year old is telling you what to do. Given the FS2004 market, I'd guess that CH Products would take this issue more seriously.
  
  
• Works well enough
  By A93XF5KICMU73 on 2005-07-20
  The pedals are nice in that you don't have to install a lot of drivers and they are pretty simple. The simplicity is a downfall as well in that they feel much like a toy. I purchased these to help fly flight simulators to prepare for the real thing, and these don't feel the same. The resistance is far less, and the way they sit with your feet aren't the most realistic compared to real rudder pedals.
  For the price, I'd expect a better effort.
  
  
• Overhyped
  By AS5NOJ0D4XGGP on 2006-11-10
  I do not understand how this product contiues to get such great reviews. I fly small general aviation aircraft and these rudder pedals do not even come close to the real thing. The pedals have no feel to them and they do not have any method of adjusting the resistance. I had to adjust them so that their response was not linear just so they would operate in a reasonable fashion. I do not know if its the pedals or the flight model for the Cessna 172 in both Fs9 and Fs 10, but I am unable to perform a adequate forward or side slip. I've tried adjusting them, and that does seem to help some, but my biggest complaint is that they have not resistance to them.
  
  
• CH Pedals are good but don't buy from Proactive Electronics
  By on 2004-04-06
  CH Pedals are the BEST. My only problem is that I've purchased the product from Proactive Electronics!! Don't buy a thing from this reseller!! They were quick charging the $122 dollars to my credit card on 3/22/2004 but until today, the product has not been received. Went to fedEx to track the shipment with the tracking number emailed to me by Proactive Electronics 1.5 weeks after placing my order, and the manifest shows it was delivered to another address. After a quick call to FedEx they told me it wasn't their fault because Proactive Electronics entered the wrong direction. Proactive Electronics is now blaming FedEx. They send 2 emails asking me to do more research, bu not a word on crediting my VISA card.
  Again, don't put your money in risk buying from an unreliable company.
  
  
• Good, but could easily be better
  By A3RJD4D2PFMV1T on 2007-01-09
  For us guys flying the smaller types of General Aviation aeroplanes like e.g. Piper PA28 and Cessna 172, the pedals are not so realistic. This is because in such aeroplanes, your heels are placed on the floor, and not on the pedals. In the real world, only the frontmost part of the foot is placed on the pedals for rudder control during flight. The Pro Pedals require the whole foot to be placed on (or actually "in") the pedal, which gives an awkward non-realistic non-relaxed feeling.
  
  But once you have gotten used to this, the pedals work very well.
  
  My pedals came with an irritating error, though. When applying rudder pressure on the right rudder pedal, the toe brake action also sets in (differential brake action). I can't get around this problem even after calibration and adjustment of the null zone. I haven't sent the pedals back to CH Products for replacement yet, so I can't say anything about the customer service.
  
  One thing is for sure: Amazon sells these pedals at a very competitive price.
  
  
• Adds another dimension to X-Plane in OS X
  By A24Q210ZT88JRW on 2006-03-04
  I bought USB rudder pedals and yoke for use with X-Plane on a Mac Dual G5.
  Plug and play (no drivers needed), easily configured in x-plane, works beautifully.
  Great price! Thanks Amazon! Shipping was 2 days early! Kudos to Fedex!
  I am a private pilot, and recommend this product!
  
  
• I don't know how anyone flies without them
  By A67LDD2OGMD6B on 2006-08-17
  I don't know how anyone flies without these. I wondered why my simulator approaches were so pathetic, turns out that a little rudder is good for those tiny course corrections you need to put the plane down right where you want it. These feel pretty solid. The only drawbacks I've found are that they're a little pricey, and some sims don't support them well.
  
  
• excellent but doesn't work in space sims at all
  By A1N2D7LLBAY25B on 2004-11-12
  Thier are so many versions of the same CH device that it's hard to review the right one. Thier are actually two versions of these rudder peddals. No rudder peddal on a separate USB port will support space sims. This is for airplanes only. It is a shame it could not be for both as quite a lot of people like both airplanes and space sims. The best way to use this is in MS Flight Sim 04's jet airliners. No other game supports the left AND right toe brake configuration.
  
  
• Works well and easily
  By AC6CGJYVKXCZC on 2005-09-19
  Plug it in to the USB and go. No problems whatsoever, and it certainly improves use of a flight simulator.
  
  
• Good pedals for the price - but with a few important design flaws
  By A342561Y5KN7RM on 2007-02-27
  Overall a good set of pedals. Generally good responsiveness and was picked up by my games (FS9/Battlefield2) with no major issues. The cost is good since I think its the cheapest set of rudders out there. Construction pretty solid overall.
  
  However, a couple of major annoyances for me.
  
  First, the pedals are so light, its easy to push them around under your desk and get them misoriented which is a major pain when in the middle of a heated battle or sim situation.
  
  Also, the heel cups are totally unrealistic as all real planes do not have them (your heel should just sit on the ground). I find that this means my legs are not totally relaxed like they are when I'm in a real Cessna, they're always a bit tensed up because you're having to keep them in the shoe cups.
  
  And finally, and this is my biggest pet peeve: The spring back to center is very weak. This is a real pain because you're left having to "feel" for a center ridge click to know your rudders are centered again. If I'm not paying attention, the weight of my legs will cause one side or the other to push out slightly and affect my flying - hence why me legs are always tensed up.
  
  At the end of the day they're still good overall. The sliding around issue could probably be fixed by mounting the system to something heavy or perhaps using Velcro to fix it to the carpet. Also I suppose one could hacksaw off the heel cups.. But I don't think there's a fix for the lack of spring to center forces... Honestly, if I could afford them, I'd rather own the Cirrus Rudder Pedals, but their also 5x the cost so... I eagerly anticipate the day where we can have pedals at a reasonable cost, and with solid (and realistic) performance
  
  
• TOP IT OFF
  By A249RWLG03TMLS on 2005-11-28
  Hi All,
  Well I am sorry I havent gotten back to you all, but as I said I would get back to you on the CH Rudder Pedals. Well here we go, If I keep buying CH Products I will have to buy stock in the company. The Rudder Pedals are the latest addition to my flight experience. Wow it make's flying really realistic. These pedals are easy to set up, it just took me a couple of minutes. I am just flying right now,but you can use then for driving too. I pull tighter turns and out gun my opponent. My friends are mad because they know it the equipment not the pilot but I tell them its both. But I am top dog right now. So I tell them to suck it up and fork out some cash. You want the best well it going to cost you. Do you know any CH Products not expensive? But they are all worth the money. If you are not using CH Products then you are left in the dust or down in flames... CH Products ROCKS!!!
  
  
• Excellent
  By A2HG0S6PN3N0WJ on 2006-01-06
  I bought these after getting the CH yoke. It took some getting use to and I had to calibrate and change the axis settings to a nonlinear setting to keep from sliding off the runway. These are great for turning while taxiing on the runway.
  
  
• CH Products
  By A1ZZHQYSVAUZ96 on 2006-05-07
  Well, after owning Gameport versions of the F16 Fighterstick, Pro Rudder Pedals and Pro Throttle for 10 years I have decided to retire them and purchase the newer USB versions. Fedex delivered my lot in 4 days. WHEW!
  Setup was easy. Windows XP (Pro is what I run) has everything needed to make them work. Plug and Play is all you have to do. Of course calibration is a prerequisite for operation.
  The Fighterstick is modeled after a joystick found in a F16 Falcon. Has a very nice feel.
  The toe brakes on the ch pro rudder pedals work perfectly. A must for taxiing a radial to the runway. The Pro Throttle glides real smooth. They've made some improvements since the Gameport controllers.
  I've looked high and low for realistic flight controls and the only other that comes close is Thrustmaster. I like Ch Products design the best.
  While the Pro Throttle isn't a true replica of an F16 throttle as modeled by Thrustmaster's HOTAS? Cougar, the ch pro throttle offers more versitility. Don't get me wrong, Thrustmaster makes good stuff. I want the versitility. I fly a wide range of aircraft, including helicopters.
  Anyy way,... I won't say Ch is the best.... instead,...they are the best for me. Now all I need to do is get off my duff and build a flight simulator box to sit in with a good seat.
  BTW... email Jane's/Electronic Arts and tell them to make a sequal to Fighter's Anthology!
  
  
  
• Save your money!
  By AGM8M7L9JHW13 on 2006-11-21
  This is a cool idea, but the execution just isn't there for flight simulation. Unlike the CH Products Yoke - which is really very good - there is very little that feels like real rudder pedals in an airplane. Control inputs tend to overact, sending you all over the sky, and you start spending your time trying to manage the pedals, not the simulator. As much as I'd like to have rudder pedals in my simulator setup, it just isn't worth the trouble. Most sims don't effectively emulate the precession and torque of a single engine prop anyway, so why bother?
  
  
• Great realism for Microsoft Flight Simulator
  By A2PCA9C96Y9MCT on 2007-05-17
  After being a joystick pilot dating all the way back to FS98, I finally upgraded to the CH Products Yoke and Pedals this year. I should have done this years ago, the fun of desktop flying with these products is very much enhanced. I am a real Private Pilot and I use FSX to plan and practice all my real life flights before I go. The addition of the CH Products Yoke and Pedals has added another dimension of reality to my practice sessions, and I truly believe these sessions enhance the safety of my real flying. This product has the solid look and feel of quality hardware the minute you take it out of the box. The pedal motion is smooth and repeatable, and very natural to me.
  
  
• Defect in Brakes (or right pedal)
  By A3HGUA3J4FDZAX on 2007-07-17
  Only had mine a few days when I noticed that I was always pulling hard to the right on takeoff. I then went in and calibrated which helped a tiny bit, but then in game when looking at the ranges, with my feet OFF the pedal, the right pedal or 'brake' shows as if it's pushed down a decent amount. They 'look' like they are level and plumb next to each other, however if you push the back part of the right pedal down, it will go close to or on zero...but you'd have to keep HARD pressure to do so.
  Seems like many others are complaining about this same issue on here and esp on other forums.
  I am attempting to get this resolved as mine aren't very old, hopefully I can return these to amazon for a full refund and get another pair that maybe cheaper in quality but hey, they work right? And that's what matters.
  The materials seem of very good quality, but they should have extended the back further and ditched the heel cups. You have to keep your feet in there which is not a relaxed state like in a real aircraft.
  Not sure what they were thinking when they designed and made these things. Oh btw they slide on the floor all over the place. I would have thought they would have at least put an option for suction cups or grip thatches to hold it to various types of floor (hardwood or carpet)
  Alas - it really doesn't matter, their design is defective.
  I guess if you don't mind the heel cups, work something to keep it from moving (thus making you have to sit the same ALL the time), and don't use the forward 'gas/brake' features and only using it for flying and rudder - you might be happy with them...???
  I feel bad as my only reviews seem to come from negative experiences. I've gotten a million things from Amazon with very little to no problems and they are usually as advertised or better! I feel it's my responsibility to steer people off of bad products as I would want them to do that for me. :)
  
  
  
  
  
• Very Disappointed
  By A3UEHT6SHS8N03 on 2007-08-11
  Spent the extra $34 dollars for next day, (Friday) so that I would have the item to begin training simulation before I started my flight classes on Monday. Item was shipped without the attachment hooks for the desk. As a matter of fact, very crappy packaging. Contents of the box, the yoke. Yes, that is correct, no manual, no cd like it says on the outside of the box, no attachment hardware, etc. I got the cd because I actually ordered the accompanying pedals. However . . . it's the principal!
  
  I called CH Products immediately. They laughed at first, and asked ME how it was possible that the contents did not make it to the box. After some frustration, they told me that they would ship it to me overnight and I would have it Saturday by 10am so that I could start training. Feeling now that they just wanted to get me off the phone, as it is currently 1:15pm and I have not seen a truck. I should have known better when the original kid that answered the phone sounded like he was at a summer job, bout' 14 I'd imagine?
  
  My instructor actually suggested other hardware. I went beyond his recommendations and bought the CH stuff because of a couple reviews. What a mistake!
  
  If you're thinking of the CH yoke and pedals for your simulation needs beware. Yes the product seems sturdy, however, it might appear that all they care about is getting the product out the door and not really concerned about satisfying the customers needs. Very poor.

  The Pro-pedals, dont work with many games, but they r the only pedals that have oppistite sliding "action", and i cant get them 2 work with any of the flight sims i have (alot) and they cost,alot but there the closest pedals 2 the real thing, and i got them 2 years ago for christmas and pulled them out of my closet yesterday, and plugged them into the USB port, and When u do that a window should pop up and say "new software detected" but it didnt then my dad and i had 2 go 2 CH.com and install a ton of drivers, and yet none of them worked. hopefully some day well figure out how 2 get them working. but for the people that can get them working there awesome pedals, and thats y i gave it 3 stars.
