LWFF and a clutch ?

by djs » Tue, 27 Feb 2001 23:32:14

Hello,  I just bought a LWFF (all red version).  On the weekend.  I was
wondering if it is possible to upgrade the pedals.  Is it possible to get a
clutch added ?  Can anyone recommend some improvements to the pedals system
ie.  better springs or anything like that. Or even recommend a after market

    Lots of people are using CH pedals hooked into their LWFF.  Details can
be found at Alison Hines Eaglewomwan site http://alison.simracing.com/gpl/
(look under FAQ, Hardware, Controllers, Force Feedback) along with several
users experiences.

    I improved my Logitech pedals by going to Home Depot and getting a
heavier spring to put under the brake pedal ( have to cut to length),
putting the original brake spring under the throttle pedal, sticking teflon
furniture slider pads on top of the pedals (so the sole of the foot can slip
slightly on the pedal to compensate for the odd swivel point of the LWFF)
and some velcro tape (hook side) glued to bottom of the pedal unit to stop
it sliding on the rug. Cost less than $10. Additionally when the pots wore
out in the pedals I replaced them with the quality CH units which fit right
in and can be bought at CH products site
http://www.chproducts.com/index.html  (online store, spare parts).  These
modifications have improved  the precision of these pedals a lot for me.

If you buy a set of CH Pedals (not Pro) you can hook up the original Lwff
pedals too, and use one of them as a clutch.
