Slaw Device Rudder Pedals - DORA

[Slaw]

Hi, All.

I would like to share information with you. There is still a lot of work.. Not everything goes as planned. But ....... These are the first pictures of 3d model of new pedals. Within a few days I will show continued. As you can see, there is a cam loading of brakes.The name (tentative) RF Dora. Very interested in your opinion regarding the appearance. The springs are not shown. The model is not final and may change.

Looks great!

Still loving your F16 pedal, they're awesome!

Hi Slaw I am a super happy customer and proudly own a set of 109 pedals. I love them. Best buy ever

[Rogue Trooper]

looks very impressive!

[agrasyuk]

That looks very good indeed (Not that I need replacement pedals at this point).

I understand you trying to achieve increased resistance for the brake action with the cam loading?

[Slaw]

Yes.

I understand that you are looking for a easy/less costly to make foot pad design, but your "Friedrich" foot pads looks more... male. :D

Love the idea of a cam for the toe-brakes... :)

BF 109 had a steel pedal (sheet steel 2 mm), which was welded.

In this case, the material - aluminum 5 mm + 2 mm steel + 3 mm steel. No welding. But welding - it is not expensive. Therefore, production of the new pedals are not cheaper.

Moreover. The load on the pedal will increases. 2 mm steel is not enough.

The progressive resistance for the break axes is a bright idea!

Any haptic/mechanical feedback is always very good to help controlling our inputs.

Well, in this case why change the design?

 

People looking for this kind of pedal foot rest and not some jet like want they look more close Bf 109/Fw 190 pedals possible, what the previous model do better. :)

To change there are several reasons.

- I have already spoken of the increased load on the pedal.

- I have received many requests to make the pedal like later version of the BF109 or FW190 pedals.

- and the most important thing. I do not want to stop. Therefore, each model of pedals made about one year. Thereafter removed from production and replaced by a new model. So it was with BF109 - BF109CAM - RF Dora. Or F16 - RX Viper - .......?

Hi, All.

The first 3D model photos of assembled RF Dora rudder pedals.

Work continues. Changes may be made.

P.S. The wires and emblems are not shown.

 

 

Perhaps it would be better for black.

 

[FrazMann]

Looks so sweet :)

Yes, at least as option, some people don't like of colored versions, see there: :D

At least, it is better to have a choice, than not to have.

[Oceandar]

Good God, I really want one :D

[Wralex]

I have RX one and they are just awesome! Slaw's stuff is perfect! 5 stars!
