How do the foot pedals work on the F1 Sim system?  Are they sensitive?  Do they
have an easy touch?  I've been very disappointed by the foot pedals of the
Thrustmaster products.

I don't know about the F1 Sim system but nothing is better than the Hyper
Stimulator for a brake pedal.  Just ask anyone that has tried one.

They are made of steel (Full size F1 Sim *not* the F1 Sim compact?) and
fairly heavy, have a large rectangular base (also steel) and pedals that
are accurately shaped and sized similar to *real* F1 Peddles. They are
nicely spaced too, *not* too close together like some others?

The angle of rake for the pedals can be adjusted, as can the tension, also
one pedal can be made *** over the other, and separate pedal axis can
be used (via a switch in the pedal base & a separate lead available from
the makers).

I ***love*** my F1 Sim pedals, they are the best I have ever used, and blow
away Thrustmaster or any other *plastic* pedals. Also as they are quite
large and heavy they do not move around at all.

They feel pretty good. But although the original model allowed separate
brake and throttle, the current version doesn't. Hit both pedals together
and they cancel each other out. Not good. Not good at *all* for 150.

Apart from that though they're ok... I just wish I'd imported something
decent instead ;-)
