Logitech G PRO Flight Rudder Pedals

Product Information

Rudder pedals are a crucial part of a flight simulator setup. They allow the pilot to control the aircraft’s yaw and brakes, providing a more immersive and realistic flying experience. I found a workaround for the Thrustmaster, first take off my boots, then spray the steel rods with silicone spray. Make them slippery. Now they work fine. But how often do I want to take off, put on, my boots? If your goal is to make your flight simulator as realistic as possible, rudder pedals are a must-have. Flight sim rudder pedals vary wildly in style, function, and price, which can come down to personal preference when choosing the best one for you.

I have also written to Logitech support, who at least answer my questions and try to find a solution.

Just my 'dumb guy' suggestion. Go to that controls section and un-assign Throttle Axis L. The Re-assign that same quadrant lever to it. If there are any conflicts the screen will display them. Save changes and see if that helps? Accurately simulating yaw in your setup is monumental to a realistic flight simulation, as well as differential braking for taxiing, take-off, and landing. How Does a Flight Simulator Rudder Pedal Work?

For our value selection, you can't do much better than the Thrustmaster T.Flight Rudder Pedals, or TFRP. Weighing at just under 5 pounds, the construction consists of steel and aluminum, which makes for a rugged piece of plastic. Compared to the other two pedals on the list, the TFRP Rudder Pedals are angled towards you, which allows for comfortable, albeit less realistic flying. The heel rest can also be removed, allowing you to control the rudder with different parts of your foot. Again, it's not the most realistic flying position, but it's perfect for staying comfortable during long flights. I have repeatedly written to Microsoft support without getting a response. Have you experienced the same thing? To me it feels like the simulator is internally somehow counteracting or amplifying the rudder inputs, leading to increasing oscillations. I don’t have this issue in other simulators such as DCS. To me, this looks like a bug in MSFS. If you’re looking to upgrade your build, you won’t be disappointed with Thrustmaster’s second entry on the list. While it may be expensive, you definitely get what you pay for. This set of pedals also offers tons of customization options right out of the box. For starters, the pedals can be adjusted into five different positions, at angles between 35 and 75 degrees. The spring positions can be adjusted to fine-tune resistance to your preference. In addition, you can combine your device with other Thrustmaster devices so that they are recognized as a single USB device, and load or create specific profiles for each game using the Thrustmaster Advanced pRogramming Graphical EdiTor, or T.A.R.G.E.T (this one is kind of a stretch, isn't it?).Our editorial team tested Logitech’s rudder pedals over 30+ hours spread across 2 weeks. The flight sim software we used was mostly Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020, although, we did occasionally shift to X-Plane 11. Our review of the product with respect to design, build quality, functionality, customizability, compatibility, comfort, and convenience is featured below. Design and Build Quality For example... there are settings for “throttle 90%”... “full throttle 1”... etc. just a thought. While they are comfortable for use, setting them up is a real hassle. The floor mounting system is downright terribleand the pedals slip, especially on smoother floors. Sure, they come with Velcro strips but those are ineffective on the carpet and who uses them on bare floors? One solution to the problem is to put weight behind the pedals, somewhere in the range of 20 – 30 lbs. That’s exactly what we did, and it worked well. A more permanent and better solution would be to bolt the pedals to the desk. Being the most popular on the list, the Logitech G Pro Flight Rudder Pedals offer great performance, pricing, and adaptability.

Overall, nothing wrong as far as compatibility is concerned; 5/5 for compatibility. Comfort and Convenience My Logitech throttle quadrant and my Thrustmaster rudder pedals plug into the Logitech yoke system... However take offs are a nightmare. Between half V1 and Vr any small input from the rudder pedals will drive the aircraft crazy and I often have to keep the pedals at crazy angles to keep the aircraft on a relatively straight line.Best High-End: Thrustmaster TPR Pedals Worldwide Version offer a high-quality build and PENDUL_R technology for fluid movement.

One strange omission from this set is the ability to adjust the tension. While the default tension is fine, it's definitely something to keep in mind for those who want complete control over their simulation equipment. Thrustmaster also offers calibration software to customize the TFRP's performance. You can adjust the TFRP to change where the dead zones are, or eliminate them altogether. You can also alter these settings separately for each axis of movement. Logitech’s G Pro Flight Rudder pedals measure 17.8 x 14.4 x 9.1 inchesand weigh 5.07 lbs. For an authentic flight experience, the set of rudder pedals features a self-centering mechanismand differential braking system.While the former’s name gives it away, the latter deserves some further explanation. Differential braking enables users to control the left and right toe breaks independently, hence giving them greater control over the aircraft’s motion. Other notable features of the G Pro Flight Rudder Pedals include, but are not limited to: All is not well for Logitech’s offering, however, as the set of rudder pedals has its fair share of shortcomings. For starters, it has a dead spot around the center: nothing too major but definitely noticeable. Secondly, the range on the brakes is underwhelming. Logitech’s rudders have less brake range than Thrustmaster TFRP pedals which are roughly 40 dollars cheaper.If you want something done right, do it yourself… or at least, let MFG help out a bit. These pedals are designed for the armchair pilot who needs every degree of freedom from their equipment.
