Hey,

I just got the Saitek rudder pedals; I have all my realism settings maxed (to realistic). Yet I notice hardly any necessity for rudder use, particularly on climbout, but also in turns. When climbing out in a Cherokee 180, for example, whereas in real life you basically ride the right rudder pedal all the way down the runway and then all the way to cruising altitude; in FSX you really don't need it at all. In turns just a tap of the rudder pedal will keep you in a coordinated turn, even at 45 degrees, whereas in a real Cherokee it takes significant rudder input.

What gives?

You're right about the add-on; I'm using the Carenado Cherokee 180. What do you fly, if I may ask?

Also, I just got them yesterday, and I was watching the ball all the way on climbout. When I hit any right rudder at all the ball jumped out of center; when I don't touch it, it stays right in the middle.
