Firstly - congratulations on your CPL! Yay! [mega-envy]

I've just placed a bid for your 2nd quadrant. I already have the yoke + one quadrant. It'd be great to try it on twins ... even my beloved NZ Warbirds DC-3!

I really need a spare set off rudder peddles So bid placed

Hahah, I thought I recognized your usernames!

To be honest, the second quadrant is amazing as far as realism goes - to be able to fully simulate an engine failure, feathering, putting the prop coarse to restart it, etc, is awesome. Next best thing to doing it in real life!

Ian - if you miss out, I still have my old CH ones (that I replaced with the Saitek ones).

Thanks Adam , I did have a spear set but gave them away years ago to a regular Christchurchian simmer and gave an old yoke to another , me being the hard core simmer .. i should have thought about keeping backups and may be a good idea that should keep in the case this serious issue occurs with you .

With that in mind id better get another for myself later on , taxing a B-17 with the two outta's running would really make for the real deal

Saitek Pro Flight Rudder Pedals
ViewView full size photo
If you're familiar with piloting or flight simulation, you know that rudders are essential to honing your piloting skills and providing essential realism. These pedals by Saitek are the best enthusiast grade pedals you can get without taking out another mortgage. They are self centering, have variable resistance, adjustable pedal sizes and realistic toe tap breaks. I bought these in 2010 for $280! Any flight simulation setup is incomplete without these.

Check out my other auctions, I have more flight simulation gear up!
