August 5, 20196 yr These are very tempting! Re the ankle/heels discussion when I was doing my flight training many years ago my instructors regularly made comment just before take off roll "heels on the floor". This was to unsure you weren't accidentally pushing on the brakes during take off. That was one of the things I did like about the Saitek Combat pedals. I now have the MFG Xwinds however the stirrup set up is not really to my liking as they are not realistic with the type of aircraft I used to fly. I believe they are considering a "combat pedal" option for the Xwinds however that has been coming for some time.

August 5, 20196 yr Commercial Member I changed from crosswinds to tpr and found them much more to my liking and similar to what I'm used to in GA. Heels on the floor unless using the brakes.

November 26, 20196 yr If you want realism, I suggest you make up a polished stainless steel plate to go under them. then you can rest your heels on the floor and voila. Admittedly, real pedals have a lip on the bottom so you can move your feet up as you should for landing. Mark Harris. Aged 54. P3D, & DCS mostly.
