Watch in HD! Simply the best rudder pedals available for all kinds of flight simulation. They have been largely reviewed for combat flight simulation and helicopters, but today we are looking at them for fixed wing commercial and general flight simulation. They are individually made and have a long wait time, but if you are on the market for the best flight simulation accessory available, look no further.

I bought these and probably going to get this as a christmas present for myself next week, cant wait! I've wanted these for like 2 years and i have Hotas Warthog waiting for these pedals!

@JordanKingGaming 7 лет назад

Sounds like a nice setup! Enjoy!

@rogerutley8738 7 лет назад

Congrats..looking for a pair myself..can I ask ballpark how much are they? Is MFG the only place to buy? Thx

@StephenWestrip 8 лет назад

Seen a couple of videos reviewing these stunning looking rudder pedals. Didn't even know they existed until a few days ago. They are going to be my next hardware purchase.

@JordanKingGaming 8 лет назад

+Stephen Westrip There is a long wait, but they are soooooo worth it!

@JordanKingGaming 8 лет назад

+TheHatchSwan Lucky you! They are a unique piece of work.

@glennet9613 4 года назад

Got mine an hour ago, already installed and working. They look great and are incredibly smooth, it’s real solid engineering as it should be, not low cost mass production. It’s early days but from a quick test it seems easier to hover a helicopter in DCS. I haven’t bothered with the software, I plugged them in and DCS picked them up straight away so until I know otherwise I’ll just use the DCS axis tune so I can have it different for each aircraft.

@kevinblythe2192 4 года назад

Great video - thanks. I appreciated the detail you covered here. Ordered mine an hour ago.

@scarecrow6741 7 лет назад

I took the leap and got on the list. I have been using these for 6 months and they are great. I recommend this product. They are worth the wait.

@MrUnSavory 8 лет назад

Well I will tell ya it makes me want a set. The way you did this really shows off those pedals. There are some good comments on the ADX site about this video also. :)

@dr.michaelr.foreman2170 5 лет назад

@Renovatio2 8 лет назад

Great review. I actually went with the Slaw Device pedals instead of the MFG. I wanted the all metal construction and the oblong base suited my rig where the MFG's wouldn't have fitted the space available. Most expensive single piece sim peripheral I've bought (Warthog is 2 pieces) but my god the difference is incredible over my Saitek Combat Rudders. I'm a DCS guy mainly and never had the ability to fly the UH-!H Huey before without it ending in a burning wreck. Now tiny yawing is so precise its become a really enjoyable experience. Liked and subbed. Cheers.

@JordanKingGaming 8 лет назад

+RenovatioJuris Hey Renovatio. The Slaws are some nice hardware! I was looking at those as well but the wall spacing didnt work for me. Sounds like you have a sweet setup and I am sure you will enjoy them!

@glennet9613 4 года назад

I don’t know what the MFG are made of, but it looks and feels like metal, even when you’re assembling them.

@MithradatesVIEupator 6 лет назад

Excellent review... What yoke do you use/prefer?

@The_Burrito 7 лет назад

So I dunno if you'll actually respond, but how well would these work with a chair with almost full-length arms? I'm distinctly unhappy with my CH Fighterstick and Pedals (throttle is kinda awesome though) and while I look for a replacement for the stick, I'm really thinking about saving up for these to replace the pedals. How much would I be able to adjust the width of the pedals?

@davidshearer567 6 лет назад

Is this a kit? I understand that you can configure them to taste, but I'd hate get a box of parts and scratch everything up putting it together.

@Jbroker404 5 лет назад

I'm wondering how these will compare to the new Virpil rudder pedals?

@scarecrow_9895 7 лет назад

If you want a pro set of rudder pedals, there is no other choice. They are the same quality as the thrustmaster warthog flight stick. Outstanding!

@jdarksword 7 лет назад

@JordanKingGaming 7 лет назад

You could buy two crosswinds for the price of 1 Slaw set of pedals.

@juicebowl 7 лет назад

Can you align a toe break horizontally, then give it a new axis center and split the axis into both forward and backward deflections? Meaning being able to tilt the toe breaks from a neutral horizontal position to either a forward position or backward position.

@JordanKingGaming 7 лет назад

+Juicebowl If I am understanding you question correctly, yes.

@juicebowl 7 лет назад

Yeah basically I would like to get one pedal's axis to register both negative and positive inputs. Is the spring capable of recentering if depressed in either direction? With this functionality I would be able to bind 2 functions like strafe up/down to a single pedal. Thanks for the info.

@rickycastrigano8312 8 лет назад

Out of curiousity, what realism settings do you fly with? I'm a very avid flyer of thePMDG 737 and have my realism settings up all the way, but I found that the plane naturally yaws left. I'm looking for realism especially for crosswind landings and if the plane yaws left without me putting any rudder input then it's basically an autorudder if there's a crosswind coming from the left. Do you have any suggestions as to what settings in FSX provide the most real like feel. Or if there is any addons I am not opposed to buying it. Thanx for the help!

@JordanKingGaming 8 лет назад

+Ricky Castrigano The plane yaws left because of the torque of the engine along with the natural airflow of the air from the propeller vortex which causes the plane to yaw left. You can turn down the settings in realism to make this more comfortable for you, but generally I fly with the sliders all the way up and just fight it.

@rickycastrigano8312 8 лет назад

+Jordan King thanks for the reply, ive been testing things, but even on takeoff if theres a heavy crosswind, as i start my takeoff roll the plane will yaw on the ground into the direction of the wind. Im starting to get the impression that the plane autorudders for wind. The box in the settings is not checked. I dont know whats going on haha

@TachyonDriver 6 лет назад

I know it was a year ago, and you may have realised the answer by now, but it may be down to "weathercocking". If the crosswind force acting on the vertical fin & rudder, overcomes the sideways force on the fuselage then the plane will point into wind. I'm not saying it's correct for the type of aircraft you're flying, but it can happen. Now if the plane is yawing left without a crosswind from the left then perhaps there is a calibration issue with your hardware - recalibrate and/or increase the dead zone slightly?

@ApeX2411 7 лет назад

Do these pedals come with a cable or would you have to buy one individually?

@JordanKingGaming 7 лет назад

Yes, it is supplied.

@ludachris6086 7 лет назад

Slaw Device Looks and feels way better !

@JordanKingGaming 7 лет назад

I personally didn't enjoy the Slaw, the new RX version may be better but I prefer the feel and customization of the MFG. Also it costs much less.

@ludachris6086 7 лет назад

+Jordan King sounds to me like u never had the chance to enjoy slaws's pedals with the optional steering damper ;)

@JordanKingGaming 7 лет назад

+Luda Chris I bought a damper, installed it, still prefer the MFG's. And to think you have to buy an additional 3rd party addon for an already expensive pair of pedals was crazy enough.

@ludachris6086 7 лет назад

so everyone got his opinion :)

@JordanKingGaming 7 лет назад

+Luda Chris Yup. Like I said, nice pedals. Just not worth it for the money in my opinion in everyone's home cockpit

@oscarlindehey7512 7 лет назад

Hmm when i deploy my brakes and realease it keeps breaking please help!

@JordanKingGaming 7 лет назад

In the controller configuration, make sure you back down your null zones and reverse/invert your pedal inputs. This should fix it for you.

@robainscough 8 лет назад

Thank you for this review. Looks like availability is scheduled for Feb 2016. I have tried to contact MFG via their web site, but received no response and no confirmation that they received my request for info. Do you have an actual email account I can use to get more info?

@JordanKingGaming 8 лет назад

+Rob Ainscough Hey Rob. Thanks for stopping by. The email I used was mfg@simundza.com where I always got a prompt response. if you for some reason you cant reach him let me know and I will try to reach out on my end as well. Maybe he is on holiday?

Hi Jordan, thanks for the email, will give that a try ... rudders are exactly what I'm looking for.

@napalmhardcore 8 лет назад

I was searching the internet because occasionally I like to drool over high end equipment that I will never be able to afford. I found things from helicopter flight systems, high end rudder pedals and yokes to full cockpits and flight decks, but I found very little in the way of flight sticks. As someone that is into racing sims, I know that there is what is considered high end by the casual crowd and then there is the real high end stuff that make the more commercial products look like toys. I fail to believe the Thrustmaster Hotas is as high end as it gets. The one exception I found was the Paccus hydraulic joystick, which personally I think is pretty ugly. So, where are all the high end flight sticks?

@JordanKingGaming 8 лет назад

+napalmhardcore You are absolutely correct. We are lacking some good all around yokes for Flight Simulation. You have Yoko, Elite Simulations, and Go Flight but none really completely do the job for us.

@AdamsOlympia 8 лет назад

Better yet, the IRIS Dynamics Force feedback yoke ... I had been keeping a close eye on their kickstarter a couple years ago and thought they fell through and went out of business before delivering final product, but just now found them being sold from pilotshop ... $1200 :( .. I'll have to make due with my thrustmaster warthog joystick for now -- just paid for my MFG Crosswind , so good to go..

@skinandphones9701 8 лет назад

Ikea pedals! They look awesome but I probanly wouldn't spend $350 on pedals unless they were customized to be a specific aircraft.

@JordanKingGaming 8 лет назад

They are pretty versatile, and for someone such as myself, I enjoy pedals that I can use in a number of scenarios and aircraft. This does the trick for me.

@skinandphones9701 8 лет назад

I went with the cheaper CH Pedals and I'm pretty happy with them other than the spacing (pedals are close) and the noise (not too loud but just enough where it's like I'd rather not hear them move). And I did a mod myself on them sort of like the EzeMod by cutting up a mouse wrist rest and sticking it to the pedals and putting them on sloped pads.

@medotaku9360 6 лет назад

A huge complaint I'm finding about these things is a lack of confidence in centering. Consistently, reviewers state that they are often unable to discern whether or not the rudder is centered while flying. Have you noticed this? Could this be remedied in some way? Perhaps by having a deeper detent in the cam or by having springs which will more strongly recenter? Maybe creating a larger deadzone in software will remedy this complaint? What do you think?

@6darkness6eternal6 7 лет назад

It's funny when the rudder pedals you use in flight sims are probably better than anything you'd find in a almost any real aircraft.

@JordanKingGaming 7 лет назад

Well nothing will ever compare to real rudders. Its just a completely different response, but these are really nice for simming.

@blewyd 5 лет назад

So are you sponsored by them? I just want to know if it really comes from the heart or from the script seems like you were told what to do.

@nonetaken7873 8 лет назад

It looks cool, but being made entirely of "composite" really worries me. I live in a hot climate so anything made of plastic gets soft and droopy. It's hard to believe these pedals won't look like a warped Dali piece of art in a few years.

@theeltea 7 лет назад

Overrated and somewhat overpriced pedals. These are plastic, don't have provision for hydraulic dampener. Not designed for different controllers (Master/Slave). I'd get BRD or Slaw if I was in the market for pedals. They are metal, have dampeners, have more adjustments and are overall much better products.

@JordanKingGaming 7 лет назад

Never heard of BRD, but I have tried Slaw and they are great, installed the dampner and they got better, but they are far to overpriced compared to these and there is certainly not as much adjustability with the Slaw's as there is with these. The material is as solid as anything I have put my feet on in a plane and serve their purpose with great accuracy and ergonomic options. I am more than happy with these for the money.
