g'day chaps.........
been absent too long with other things, but back at it now.........
well we've had a new addition to the family ;D
they arrived Monday and i've now had the chance to crawl all over them. very solid construction and they look the part as well.
hoping to get them fitted at the weekend. very pleased with the detail on the pedals. simple USB 'Plug & Play' connection via one of Leo's boards which i'm going to hook up through FSUIPC. i now have a set of GoFlight rudder pedals and a set of CH Flight Pedals surplus to requirements if anyone's interested ....... GB£ 40 each + shipping (or you can collect).
more pics on my website ( www.737ng.co.uk/help.htm ) News Page and i'll post more when i have them 'in situ'.
one thing i paticularly like is the footrests are seperate pieces and their position can be 'adjusted' to suit your yoke or space constraint. more soon.......
have a great day ..... ian

Wow they simply stunning Ian. They must feel great on the legs too after the CH and GF jobbies?
Cheers,
Ken.
PS. Hey Gwyn, take a tape measure with you when you visit Ian. Perhaps these could be added to your ever increasing lineup too? ;D
They look great Ian! Like Ken said, I bet they feel a lot better too.
Nice to see that you've received your pedals (just announced a couple months ago) and I still haven't received the TQ I ordered in December. I've taken an hourly reduction at work recently and between that and the 7 month wait, I've e-mailed Eren to cancel the TQ order, which is kind of sad.
I guess I wouldn't be so bitter if I hadn't e-mailed a few times during the wait (was quoted 3 weeks at time of order) and always received the same exact "just a week or two more" response. Just be honest about the situation and people will be much more understanding.
Happy for you, nonetheless. The pedals look undeniably outstanding.
Installed my linked Rudder Pedals from Revolution about two weeks ago and I have to say that taxiing and crabbing is now a joy and not a pain!
Also still waiting for my TQ which I ordered back in November. Any week now.............
Ralph
Glad to see your pedals there. Looking really really nice.
I also await the TQ and hope it's finally finished by the time I get back from my summer holliday at the end of july.
Nice set of spanners Ian.
O'h and the rudder pedals are quite good too.
Will be keeping a beady eye on your web site for updates.
I could do with a decent set of pedals to replace my CH ones. Now where did I put my chisel and router.
Gary
;D ;D ;D well i've now had time to fit them. very pleased with the appearance and operation.
simply hooked up via a bodnar card and assigned/calibrated in FSUIPC..... simple as that.
having sold a lot of my old stuff, decided what i'm going to spend the money on. i've just got to
have a set for the other side. save money, build them yourself, it's not difficult.

Wow, Ian! They look fantastic!
Think they'll be robust enough for the traffic your sim gets?
Sean
hi sean.......
absolutely no worries there. internally, all the major parts are metal construction with the exception of the
pot gears. my only crib is that i think Eren has been a little 'over generous' with the actual rudder springs.
he tells me that they will relax a little with use, but i took a couple out anyway ( i can always put them back in ;D )
when are you and clive coming to try them out ;D ?
have a great day.........
regards ... ian
Hi Ian
I'm spending all day Saturday at Clives, see if we can iron out a few wrinkles, hopefully do some flying. Capt. Carling will be joining me. We're gonna discuss coming down to yours then, plus FSWeekend, I've persuaded Clive to come along.
Love those rudder pedals. Can't wait to get my hands feet on them.
Sean
Ian they look great.. You surely have manged to fit them in perfectly. Great Job!
