Saitek Pro Flight Combat Pedals

[kestrel79]

I wanted to get these as I don't really like my CH Pedals anymore. They are too close together and are very easy to move.

Problem is they don't fit in the pedal area of my Obutto gaming cockpit they are too wide I guess.

I forget where I read that Cheese,

Maybe over at SimHQ? But my CH pedals right now in the Obutto have about only 1.5" of space on each side. I'm fairly tall (6'1") so maybe it's just because I have my pedals further back. There's more space if you would pull them forward, but then I'm too far from my monitor.

Obutto is GREAT though. Best simrig for the price. I do a lot of racing sims as well so it's great to have something that's comfy to sit in and I can switch from flying to driving mode fairly easily.

I love flying with my joystick mounted center too between my knees like most WW2 planes and the Obutto has an adapter you can buy to do this, it works great.

Wow nice! I stand corrected.

Are the pro combat pedals any wider than the standard Saitek pedals then? Those are the ones I was interested in.

[Sokol1]

Probable no, since they use the same base (and eletronics).

Sokol1, sorry to disagree with you. The Combat pedals feel wider. You dont put your feet "in" them like you do the Pro Flight. They feel a bit more comfy. Just my opinion. As I said in my original post, they take some getting used to...
Oh, Darn nice Pit you got .

Posted in Saitek Forum - about Combat Pedal - by Mad Caz (owner):

The new pedals are the same base as the old ones, the new ones have a metal top end where as the old ones have plastic foot pedals, they have always used pots so the new Combat Rudder Peddals use pots.

If you have further inquiries please do not hesitate to get back to us.

Thats meam except for metal (alluminum) foot rest (and almost double price) the pedals are equals. Maybe extra width in foot rest?

Obuto + Combat pedal = bad.
