I have the regular Saitek rudder pedals. There are the same as the combat ones as far as I can tell, though with plastic foot-rests rather than aluminum.

Anyway I have never had any problem with them. My only minor complaint would be that they tend to "stick" just a little bit in the center. I suspect this is actually a feature to make you more aware of when your rudder is centered but I would prefer a smooth action through the center for fine adjustment/aiming. Anyway I just realized while typing that I could probably fix this by setting a small deadzone so thanks for making me think of it!

Yes, the Combat pedals have the exact same base as the old Saitek unit. The only difference is the metal pedals instead of plastic.

So these are the best to buy? http://shop.strato.de/epages/219707....%2011%20007%22

Seem to include toe brakes and all. Hopefully the shipping to Oz isn't an arm and a leg...

But not mass produced. At this time i cant find it on their shops.
Maybe you could email or call them to ask if they will have a other production run.

I wonder how feasible it is to build one with two door gas springs. When the weather warms up, I'm gonna try to construct one. I have the ch pedals, while I have done some mods (increased spring strength, removed center detents), the travel is not smooth even after some WD40. It being only 8bits is also kinda crappy.

These pedals are great I have the vario USB as the ones with brakes are a bit pricey, but these are so comfortable and accurate that although not cheap they are really worth the money.
