Thrustmaster TPR Pedals (Compatible with PC)

I am an actual pilot, with thousands of hours in general aviation and military aircraft. In flying computer simulators, these rudder pedals are very faithful in all respects. You are able to angle the pedals in the proper vertical alignment one finds on actual aircraft, and upon doing so, you will experience highly realistic rudder and braking actions.In aviation, there is a term called "tops and bottoms" when it comes to rudder actions. The tops being the brakes and the bottoms being the actual rudder. These rudder pedals allow one to properly replicate that reality. You can place the toes of your feet at the bottom of the pedals and manipulate the rudder. Or, you can place your toes on the tops of the rudder pedals and apply braking.I found differential braking to be smooth and highly accurate, something that using cheaper pedals I just never was satisfied with as there was constant over and under braking actions. With these pedals, that does not happen. When you apply the brakes smoothly, you get smooth braking.These pedals are well worth the money.

Finally replaced my Logitech all plastic rudder pedals with Thrustmster TPR all metal pedals! What a difference! I’m a IFR rated licensed pilot and used the plastic rudder pedals with since the 1990’s. Wish I’d upgraded years ago now that I’ve experienced the difference! The TPR’s are much more realistic to the pedals used in the Cessnas and Pipers I used for flight training. I didn’t even need to tweak these in MSFS or DCS World! Very Smooth response and true to life feel!I didn’t want to spend this much money. I was going to order from one of the other two companies who’s pedals sell for about $200 less, but neither company has these in stock and future shipments from them are not looking promises for the near future! Now that I’ve been using them for a couple weeks, I’m satisfied with the extra cost over the others not even being obtainable at this time.

THE THRUSTMASTER TRP RUDDER PEDALS IS A SOLID-DESIGNED (All-Metal) RUDDER PEDALS WHICH HAS A SMOOTH AND VERY ACCURATE RUDDER SIMULATION AS ADVERTISED...NOW MY FLIGHT/SPACE SIMULATOR SYSTEM SET-UP IS NOW COMPLETE!!!! Note: I purchased the ThrustMaster Warthog Hotas (Joystick and Throttle System) which is also an all-metal design, months ago, now with the purchase of the ThrustMaster TRP Rudder Peddles, that completes my “Big Boy” Flight/Space simulator system!!!….Note: I must also add that this ThrustMaster Warthog Hotas Flight is really accurate replica of the actual famous A-10 Warthog Air Force aircraft flight stick system…The reason why I would know that is because I am a United States Air Force Vietnam Veteran who was trained as an “Aircraft Maintenance Specialist” on the B-52 Bomber and the KC-135 air refueling aircraft with extensive knowledge of the famous A-10 Warthog (Tank Killer). This flight system is a little “Pricy/expensive but if you want to play with “BIG BOYS” to me who is a 73-year-old Vietnam War Veteran/Flight Simmer, it is worth every penny!!!.. THIS THRUSTMASTER WARTHOG HOTAS FLIGHT SYSTEM IS SERIOUS….

This rudder system is very well built and constructed of metal. It adds a real life feel to the flight simulator as a rudder system is crucial when flying planes. It does require some adjustments within MSFS 2024 to get the inputs correct. If you're investing in a flight simulator this is a good as it gets.

I had an under $200 set of rudder pedals; they were ok but I could not use them with any degree of finesse, they were just not up to the job. I was very frustrated with poor ground handling and takeoff rolls (in M$ Flight Simulator, BTW). I got these, set them up, tried them for a while, tweaked the setup some, and have been very pleased with their performance. There are still some aircraft in the sim that are very twitchy on the ground (you try to correct a tiny amount, and the aircraft jumps like you kicked the rudder halfway to the floor - not realistic) - I attribute that to the mediocre ground model of FS plus some aircraft vendors have not spent the time to deal with that in their model. The TPR is pretty heavy, but I still find it necessary to have something to anchor them so I can push all the way to the floor if I need to. Most of the time not needed, but no fun when you need a lot of rudder and the pedals slide a bit. So I'd plan on having something to hold them very firmly in place (which is what I recommend for any rudder pedals, not just these). No, I'm not a big muscle guy, I'm not using THAT much force. Overall the action on the TPR is VERY smoooooth. I really like the range of adjustability of the pedal positions so you can keep the brakes out of the way when you're just flying. Also very nice to be able to set the pressure / force needed to actuate the pedals; you have springs that have a very wide range of adjustment. I prefer mine just a bit still, just enough so I can tell when the pedals are centered. These have contributed substantially to my enjoyment and immersion in the simulator; I'd never want to go back to my old pedals. So like I said - expensive, but worth it. Recommended.

I mainly fly helicopters, so I needed accurate and sturdy pedals. These are just that! While calibrating (and flying in DCS) I could see the tiniest movements were being read in. It really takes helicopters to the next level!For shipboard operations they really help too, but for anything else, I wouldn’t be able to justify the cost. But to be fair, they are all metal, use Hall effect sensors and as a result are super precise, have toe brakes, and you can easily change the springs without tools or disassembly, so they are the ultimate rudder pedals for flight sim.

The price tag might frighten you, but the truth is that these pedals are worth it. Other pedals do not have an actual pedal's resolution or feel. These are so smooth, so accurate, and so well-built. The solid frame and engineering that went into these are evident. Works perfectly with X-Plane and MSFS.
