I had Saitek Pedals but also had an X-52 Pro. I just couldn't get the hang of them and kept reverting back to the stick twist rudder.
Eventually I got and then modded a Thrustmaster Cougar and had no option but to get Pedals (I'd sold the Saitek pedals)
I bought Simpeds and had a very steep learning curve...but that curve is worth the effort as you will become really used to how they all work together and now I'd never go back to the twist stick.
Seriously, give it time and have some patience and the Pedals will be an integral part of your flying.
Cheers, MP
