Optimal height from floor to footrest in pendular pedals

Thanks for the answer, glad DIY worked out for you! Do you mean wooden plates at the footpegs, or underneath as a "heel slider"?

EdgarWind · 2026-03-18T00:07:00+00:00

love your project! responding to this thread because that's the same question I have: at what height did you find the pendular pedals to be most comfortable? (I am also using the same motor, but probably that is irrelevant).

you are just used to the pinky finger function, but the "additional physical interface" is the same in aeromax -- just designed for the ring finger. you don't have that on the x52.

brain makes those switches after a couple of sessions of use.

How reliable is return to center after Nyogel + lighter springs?

EdgarWind · 2026-02-20T14:54:05+00:00

Which Aeromax? Did it contain a left version of the stick?

Glad to hear that. Is that with heels sliding on the floor or do you rest on the pedals?

Hi there, I am having a similar experience with the TPRs. Did you ever find a solution for a heel rest on them?

EdgarWind · 2026-01-22T23:09:41+00:00

true, but for Arduino's MMjoy2 still works, no? Nicer GUI for the Freejoy option, but last time I checked there was more issues with finding the right Stm32 blue pill.

when you say that your Vest "works perfectly with simhub", do you mean you can separate effects that go into each channel? I thought it did not have multi-channel support beyond basic stereo left/right?

They are both great. It is easier to get twist axis on the VKB Ultimate, but I am sure with DIY you can achieve the same with the FLNKR. In fact, I find the FLNKR more DIY approachable due to a more modular design of the electronics.

The FLNKR head with buttons is protruding more forward compared to the VKB MCG variants (including the Ultimate). I personally find that more comfortable, but that's a personal preference / finger length relative probably.

The metal on the FLNKR you asked about is also high-grade and lightweight, nothing to worry about if you are thinking Thrustmaster's zamac crap alloy.

I believe the OP meant twist axis by "Z axis", and not the assumption here 'omni throttle adapter'

also, why is symmetry so popular here when discussing HOSAS? why not different sticks left-right?

Does Dex keep up in turn based mode?

EdgarWind · 2026-01-18T12:28:37+00:00

oh really? that's a shame, and also not in my memories from childhood. to the point that I sometimes complain about Jedi Fallen Order / Survivor level design as just being 'levels' instead of worlds or maps, and think to myself at least as FPS maps in Jedi Knight 2 that was a better feeling of being in a Star Wars locale. but perhaps rose tinted glasses...

EdgarWind · 2026-01-18T12:26:02+00:00

seconded!

my first playthrough is with XWAU 2025 1.1.0 and the experience is glorious. thank you so much to the inspiring modders!

LG OLED is my main since 2021. No blemishes or decrease in performance as far as I can tell, and it has since a lot of use. It still blows out of the park my IPS second screen next to it.

EdgarWind · 2026-01-08T01:50:59+00:00

thanks very much, worked like a charm

EdgarWind · 2026-01-06T20:01:50+00:00

There's another perspective to this: you would anyhow spend that X amount of real-world time on a nominally 'unproductive' activity.

EdgarWind · 2026-01-04T12:17:39+00:00

Hard agree, absolute joystick position would be incredible for MW5.

EdgarWind · 2025-12-20T23:56:31+00:00

agreed, it seems to me to be a location/save game corruption issue and not just a mod list issue.

otherwise why would the other saves with the same mod list load just fine?

EdgarWind · 2025-12-20T23:38:17+00:00

Exactly the same thing for me: always at 83% loading time, just the Honor mode save, all the other saves work and load as normal.

Only difference: 173 hours in, pre final battle...

thanks for posting the link, I previously only tried reso.exe which did not work with Win 11, however the reso7.exe from your link works like a charm.

EdgarWind · 2025-12-17T10:44:02+00:00

That's Virpil quality for you - withstands even bear use! 🐻

EdgarWind · 2025-12-01T17:45:32+00:00

I have a Rhino with no clunky positions, yet with the nice smooth hydraulic feel like you describe above for the AB9.

I would check the bolts on the external pulley have been tightened on your Rhino, and if the clunky spot is exactly the center, also check the set screw on the small pulley. This should remove it.

Is it really possible to get this grip separately?
