Looks definitely great! And it seems to have Force Feedback too - i don't want to miss this anymore, that's why i have sticked to my MS Sidewinder 2 for so long.

Logitech listened to the Flight Simmers requests.

And came up with a winner.

I am happily retireing my trusty X52 and made for kids rudder pedals. Saitek redesign these.

FF is the only way to fly and these rudder pedals, spaced apart for an adult are excellent and sturdy.

The whole setup is built to last. At $300.00 it's cheaper in price compared to Saitek X52 and rudder pedals and has Force Feedback.

And these are built for an adult.

This might be pricey for the casual flyer but, for the Hardcore.

It's The Only Way to Fly.

$150 for shipping!? Do I also get two big boobed naked women to keep me busy for the weekend and two cases of beer?

Worry not! I wait for a year or so for the dollar to drop and buy it from you for 40€.

They'll be collectables by then. I'd want 100 euros then.

That's not fair! You bought it with dollars, so why should I pay more than you did! I mean, we already have to pay extra if we buy games online (because some fricking twat decided that a game costing $50 should be priced as 50€ for us Europeans ).

Here's the deal Dowly. You come to a westcoast USA SusSim meet and I'll give them to you.

You just have to figure a way to smuggle them back into Finland.

I don't think "Keestering" them is a healthy option either.
