Wich you think are better, whats the difference? https://flightsimcontrols.com/product/vkb-sim-t-rudder-pedals-mk-iv-2/ https://virpil-controls.eu/vpc-ace-torq-rudder-pedals.html On Virpil you can have a back to center funktion or they stop and hold where you want.

I would like to know if this also possible on the VKB? I have the VKB Pedals. But I don't fly any DCS Helicopter modules (not yet). I have found no setting to stop them on a certain position. As far as I know they always come back to their center as soon as they are released. But maybe someone else can proof me wrong. I didn't miss that feature and so I never had a look after it. But I can tell you that I am quite happy with these rudders. You won't regret buying them. They are small, they stay where you want them and you don't have those turning chair problems on a normal office chair. But I guess the same goes to the Virpil Rudders. 14700K | MSI Z690 Carbon | Gigabyte 4090 Gaming OC | 64GB DDR5 6000 G.Skill Ripjaws S5 | Creative SoundBlaster X-FI Titanium HD on a Violectric V90 Headphone amp and Fostex TH600 Headphones | LG 42 C227LA & Samsung C32HG70 | TrackIR 5 | Virpil WarBRD with VFX Grip | Thrustmaster Warthog Throttle | VKB T-Rudder Pedals MK IV I only fool around the F-14 - and still having a hard time on it as there is so much to learn and so little time and talent.

I have a motorcycle damper on my Slaw pedals, twist the knob adjust tension up or down, make em as stiff (or not) as you please. On that note, OP, I'd recommend Slaw's ViperRX. They're literally ''the best'' if money and time are not an issue, as well as being a mechanical work of art.

Hector45 Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 I recently got the MFG Crosswind, they also have the optional damper which I opted for. Spring is easily removable so you can run them with just the damper so they stay in place.

-Relax- Posted April 13, 2022 Author Share Posted April 13, 2022 No problem that you guys say what you have buyed or so. But I am looking for the style as push down pedals like the VKB or the Virpils. So if anyone has the virpil i would be interest in opinion about them. I hear only goods from the vkb but liked to have maybe the options from the dampers wich the vkb dont have. I have one who say this about them "The main issue with the damper is that it's not even. Pressing the left pedal is "harder" than the right pedal." After that i asked him if this also a thing when not using dampers. "There's still a slight difference but really noticable." Any can conforim this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After that i asked him if this also a thing when not using dampers. "There's still a slight difference but really noticable." Any can conforim this? I can't tell about the feeling when using dampers as I use my VKB Rudders Out of the box. What I can tell you is that I am not able to tell you a difference between right and left pedal. Man, I use that thing with my feet not with my fingers But even if there is one, there are several fineadjustment possibilities that one should really be able to make this feeling even on both pedals. It would really be helpfull if you could get an opinion of a Virpil Rudder user. edit: If I was at your position to choose now and if I would want what you want, then I would buy the Virpil Rudders. Simply because they have everything you want out of the Box. No need to mod anything just simple Adjustments. So why go the hard route if you can have it smooth and easy?

Burt Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 (edited) I don’t always like having my feet on the rudder pedals which is why I opted for the TM TPR pedals. It’s a solid piece of perfection but man are they expensive too. Virpil is pure quality too!

Песочек Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 On VKB T-Rudder pedals you can remove the spring, and than pedals will stay in their position and dont back in center. But i dont use this, because i fly on Ka-50. GTX 1070, i5-8600 3.10GHz, 32GB RAM, Samsung SSD 970 EVO Plus 500GB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
