Yes, you can use your wheel's brake & throttle pedals as rudders. Thank you for your advice to help me simulate a Citabria 7ECA in MSFS. The only problem with your suggested approach (it seems to me anyway) is I don't see any way to attach the "Logitech Formula GP Racing Wheel" separate gas-and-brake pedals to either the "Logitech Wingman Attack 2" joystick or to the computer because the GP gas-and-brake pedals have only a telephone connector (the USB part is in the steering wheel). The steering wheel doesn't seem like a good substitute for a yolk or joystick either, as it doesn't go up & down the steering column. Maybe there is a telephone-to-usb or telephone-to-serial adapter so I can plug the driving gas-and-brake pedals into the computer, but if there isn't, then I think I'll probably go and add Jay Williams' suggested USB "CH Pro Pedals" and a USB splitter with the existing joystick. So, it seems my best option is: - Give up on leveraging the (automotive) racing wheel & pedals - Keep the existing USB joystick - Buy the "CH Pro Pedals" and a USB splitter Connect the joystick & pedals first to the 2:1 splitter, then to the PC. I guess the other option is to just buy a third unit which combines a yoke and a set of rudder/brake pedals. The advantage of this option is the ability to simulate the Cessna 172 (which I might try some day in the real). Does anyone have a recommended beginner yoke & rudder combination? |
