My pc/flying chair is an office chair with castors. I had some Logitech rudder pedals which rolled the chair when I moved the pedals. I had the tension as low as it would go. My query is this. Would I have the same problem with the MFG pedals? I see there is an adjustable spring for tension but how …

Hi, To stop sliding around when using my rudder pedals I replaced the castor rollers on my gaming chair with glides. You can find office chair glides on amazon etc. Hope this helps, Werner

Thank you Werner. I replaced my roller castors with castors with a brake when I sat on the chair. I am also a ham radio operator and need the chair to move around so I went back to the roller castors and sold the Logitech rudder pedals. I will look at the glides. My chair is on a carpet.Thanks

Yes, the MFG’s have an adjustable spring at the front to customise tension. I had the same issue, my chair also having castors. It’s on carpet, and what I do is bring the chair in to position from the side, so that the castors are side on. That has more than enough resistance to stop me sliding b…

I have the MFG Crosswind rudder pedals and I also have a gaming chair on castors. The spring tension can be adjusted loose enough for me that I don’t push the chair around when using the pedals. The only thing I had to do was mount the pedals on a piece of plywood that is long enough to reach under …

This is my simple home made solution to avoid sliding: [image] Made from a cheap IKEA HEJNE shelf with the middle board cut out. Works perfectly. I can push as hard as I want and it won’t move.

Thank you all for your input. Excellent. Good flying and Stay Safe. PS. I am trying to decide between the MFGs or the VKBs which are more up and down. Any thoughts please?

The tension on both the rudder axis and brakes axis are adjustable on the MFGs, however even on the lowest setting I find the brakes still require a bit of force, and wouldn’t want to use them on a chair that is able to move freely. I replaced the wheels on my office chair with roller blade-type whe…

I am partial to MFG, their braking action is flawless, you can adjust tension as needed, their construction is solid, plus excellent customer support, you can talk to the guy who makes them. My landings became a lot easier, and I was finally able to fully control a tail dragger with this pedals. The…

I use this for my chair. Bought on amazon [image] For the MFG, I’ve had it for a few years now and they’re great. Nothing to say. Compared to VKB or Virpil, it’s wood where the others are made of metal. But for the moment no sign of failure. Next to it, I have a Virpil throttle which is excellent…
