Great for MS Flight Simulator [Posted on 2005-08-30] The bundle software is good. The pedals works great to control your rudder in MS Flight Simulator 2004.
Excellent Pedals with a minor distraction [Posted on 2006-02-22] As far as the pedals go, these are excellent for the price. Why didn't they get 5 stars? They have a detent the hold the pedals at center. Real airplanes do not have this (the pressure on the rudder keeps the pedals centered) and this detracts from the feel and usability of the pedals. Hopefully after more break-in that will loosen up.
The game that came with it is not but but also not what I bought the bundle for. Had a little trouble getting both the pedals and my flight yoke to work with the game at the same time (no problem is MS Flight Sim).
XP Compatibility Issues [Posted on 2006-09-06] In Win ME/98 it was possible, with a file patch, to use the rudder pedals with other games and also to change controller preference with a number (1, 2, 3, etc.). Win XP handles controllers differently and doesn't allow this. When connecting the Rudder Pedals to the USB and the Saitek X52 Joystick/Throttle combo, the Pedals assume Controller #1, this cannot be modified. The pedals only work for games that support mulitple controllers. If a game does not, in order to use the X52, I have to unplug the Pedals so the X52 will assume the #1 controller position. This really sucks and makes one wish for the old WinME/98, however, they aren't as stable as XP nor are some of the newer games backward compatible to the older OS. So it's a bite-the-bullet and live with it. IF your game supports multiple controllers and your OS is WinXP then these pedals are outstanding, but that frequently isn't the case. Don't play Max Payne or other games with the pedals plugged in, they will be the primary controller...ugh.
excellent value [Posted on 2007-01-11] this is the 2nd set of pro pedals I've owned. Strangely the price actually went down from 10 years ago. Excellent feel, great value and overall quality
