T-Rudder Pedals Assembly Help
Posted: Sat Sep 09, 2023 2:26
Hello all,
I was just gifted a set of VKB T-Rudder MKIV pedals (used) and I need some help reassembling them please.
I think I worked out the nuts, washers, and spacers that attach the push-pull tubes but am not sure about that. Can someone give me the order of the nut - spacer -lock washer - pp tube? Starting from the bottom.
I did have a couple of pieces left over and I don't know what they are used for or where to put them. See the attached photo of the mystery pieces.
Lastly, when I attached everything and connected the cables to my PC everything seemed to work in MSFS2020. The sim recognized the pedals and once I mapped them to the yaw axis (both helo & FW) everything appears to work OK.
It can't be this easy can it? Do I need to do a software update or calibration etc?
Where are the instructions for that? The documentation provided or online is not very helpful but maybe it's just my 77 year-old brain! Any suggestions?
Thank you
