Thanks for the video! It helped me diagnose the loose white wire on the center potentiometer. The brake pedals cables were kinda "pulling" it, breaking the soldering.
the fix is to open and spray MD40 to the potentiometers, i had the same exact problem like you, and i did with my quadrante as well, and it fixes when using the md40 spray it will eliminate all the bad contacts, but you need to find the potentiometer of that axis, you may do it to all since its open PS-lol you did it..my answer was to early..sorry for that, great job PS2- always do a test before closing because sometimes can even be something else, you should had done all potentiometers, i love pots because i'm a professional guitar player and i use them all day long, with the guitar or even pedals, humidity is a Pot killer cheers brother
Thanks for your comment. These are Saitek Pro Flight Cessna Rudder Pedals. Saitek was rebranded Logitech G a while back but I think they are essentially the same product.
Sorry I don't remember any metal dowels.. were they packed seperately with the pedals or have they somehow fallen out of the base? Or, (looking at the picture I found on Google) they might have to be fitted to the foot rests. The F16 version has adjustable size foot plates.
I know these are getting long in the tooth now but they are far superior to the current Logitech pedals in my opinion, I haven’t got any issues but I’ll use the video for a little tlc 👍
Thanks for your comment. The pedals have stood the test of time quite well however as you can see the modifications I have made have increased its 'survivability'. I am just waiting for the next thing to snap inside. It's perhaps inevitable considering the amount of abuse they get.
@@simmo2sim the spring mount at the bottom of the toe brake sping will go, it is just plastic and a real baked in, failure point. Unfortunately there is no replacement unless you can 3d print the part. Logiteck have abandoned this product. I am looking to drill a little hole in the plastic, below the break.. and use a longer guitar trem system spring instead of the high tension short spring.

Glad to be of help.

Great job.
Hmmm timely as I am thinking of buying this. Is this the Logitech Pro because I read good reviews on it? Thx

@@simmo2sim thx for replying.So they can be used for other planes not just Cessna?
Yes, any plane.
I have the f16 version of these and for the life of me can't figure out where two small metal dowels go? Any idea on where they go?

hey im wondering how you got those cessna styled rudder covers, did you 3d print them?
No, The cessna was one of the options you could buy at that time.

hello mate well, one of the toe brake totally stopped working. would you know a fix to this problem ?
Unless it's a faulty potentiometer then it's probably a broken wire. If you have not opened the unit before be prepared for a lot of grease.
i have this exact issue with my left toe brake. great you have a video about it!
I'm glad to be of help
@@simmo2sim my toe brake has been broken for years before this video was made, so this is a lifesaver🙌 have a nice day
