The "most awesome" are probably the simped F16.

Simped are not the most awesome.
Because:
1) Price
2) Weight is to light you can kick them away as seen here at 0:20

Saitek combat pedals are BIG (Huge)
149 euro (if you look for them not the official 200 euro price tag)
And a lot of metal parts.
I am not talking about the normal saitek pedals.
I am talking about this beast http://www.saitek.com/uk/prod/compedals.html

Thank you ghodan for the link. I didn't know that Saitek had some new stuff now.

Is there any info about a hotas being worked on or just released?

Sorry but them being light is right but them just being pushed away is big BS since that only happens if you are braindead and DO NOT use the included hook and loop tape to fix them on the ground...

I found no info on the weight. Did you?

149 euro (if you look for them not the official 200 euro price tag)

Where?
Afaik there are no retailers other the saitek itself.

And a lot of metal parts.

I like the design too, however I'm everything but confident in quality when it wears a Saitek label.
Sorry.

Dont know were you are from but here in Holland (netherlands) you can buy Saitek stuff anywhere.
The cheap prices for the combat pedals are:
http://tweakers.net/pricewatch/unsor...er-pedals.html (4 stores that have it for 150 to 160 euro. saitek official price is 199 euro)

and my favorite online hw store has them to for under 150
http://www.salland.eu/product/953768...0002-02-1.html

Weight 13.10 lbs

look at the size of it compared to the already big g25 or g27 race wheel pedals

Epic fail in size (and man parts comfort?)

I've just got a set of Simped vario pro rudder pedals and am really impressed. Similar price to the Saitek.

Have to disagree that these ones move around - using them on carpet though rather than wooden floor - i haven't even felt the need to use the supplied velcro pads. Very nice and very precise control.

Using with CH Combat Stick and Pro Throttle. All excellent.
