Does anyone know if it is possible to connect two set of Pro-Pedals on the same computer and if there would be any conflict in Flight Sim (The pedals would not be used at the same time as my sim would have either have the pilot flying or the co-pilot. See image http://lh6.ggpht.com/NZ6258/SBgqkMwZqXI/AAAAAAAAA2k/yJzKN53k290/IMG_1382.JPG?

Hi SKA200,

Flight Sim will recognize the and use them both. It just responds to the last one that moved. The problem comes because the value of the output of the pedals you're not using will most likely bounce around by one count every so often. Something like 127, 128, 127, etc. When that happens on the currently unused set of pedals, it sends a report and FS accepts it.

If you're using the "A" set and have the rudders off center, FS will respond to that, but then if set "B" bounce by a count, FS sets things right back to center (because that's what set "B" told it to do.

There is no center calibration for rudders under pure Windows so I don't know if there's any way around that. You might try setting the Null Zone in FS if it turns out to be a problem. If that won't fix it, you could install the Control Manager. You wouldn't need a map, just let them run in "Direct Mode", but it has a page for each device where you can set Deadzone for the device. That should settle it down enough that the pedals don't bounce and pull you back to center all the time.

Hope this helps!

Best regards,
