I recently bought Pro Flight Rudder Pedals (alongside Yoke and TQ).

Until now I was always under impression that rudder pedals are used all the time during flight (you know - to keep "the ball" centered) but now I don't know if this is the problem with my setup, it's just a FSX thing or what. For me it's almost impossible to do that (coordinated flight thing) because even small movements on the pedals make the ball jump left or right like crazy. On the ground while taxiing rudder pedals work as I expected, so I think my calibration (I used FSUIPC and followed a guide) is just fine. Do I just need more practice, is this a FSX thing, is this the way it is in real life or is something else in play here? Maybe my knowledge about rudder pedals is simply wrong? Do you always use rudder pedals when making a turn in flight?

I´ve got the same hardware lately and noticed the same. Sometimes the rudder is too low on the response and sometimes too high. But i´ve learned that this is up to the flight model which makes that the way it is. So a good flight model might be better for flying with the rudder and Yoke.

usually you use both ailerons and rudder when making turns. Make sure that "autorudder" is unchecked in FSX, and that your rudder is properly calibrated.

You are probably right. So not much that we can do about it, just try to do our best. Since I just got these rudder pedals I'll probably improve a little :Nerd: Hope so :)
