VelocityOne Rudder Pedals (Xbox & PC) Review
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 сер 2023
- Turtle Beach's pedals find themselves in a tough spot within the current market situation. I liked the Turtle Beach VelocityOne rudder pedals for what they are within the confines I talk about in this Review. The set's biggest problem is the competition by the name of Virpil and possibly WinWing in the near future. Still they work great with every flight and space sim you can imagine.

Nice pedals! I award them with 4 out 5 Heinzes if you can get them for 180 or less.
Another awesome and informative video! Thanks!
Thanks for the appreciation :) You're welcome :)
I just pulled the trigger on the MFG Crosswind V3! 🤞
One of the best out there :)
Got mine used and shipped for $180 100% worth it at that price
i only paid 235 Euro for my set, excited to get them to add to my velocity one setup
That's a good price! Nice! :)
In Australia they are just way too expensive. For $25 more I can get all metal Winwing pedals. For $100 more I can have the full metal and damped Winwing pedals. You would have to be mad.
Absolutely. They already dropped in price in some countries. In my opinion TB can't sell them above 200€ anymore now. In Europe the Skywalkers are available for 276€ shipping included (w.o. the dampener).
I had the thrustmaster ones and they were bad. Few days ago bought these for 270 (used a promocode from a streamer), so theyre a bit expensive, but then again, i wasted money on the thrustmaster too. Im super content with the velocity. Thanks to the pads on the underside, they dont skid away (huge problem with the thrustmaster). Only "downside", cant really use these with my sloafers since they require a bit force when using them, so i use them while wearing socks (or you can use shoes, but i dont wear shoes inside so). Its worth the 270.
Nice! Yes, compared to the TM pedals these are a revelation.
nice vid (i still suck at air rb)
Thanks :) I'm not the best either. Spading the P61 atm. It's a rough ride 🙈
I have an old set of Saitek rudder pedals that have a broken toe brake spring. They still work, but don't spring back. I'd like to get these VelocityOne rudders because I like the vertical brake arrangement and they are reviewed to be very smooth. But like you said, the price is just too high. Another Logitech G Pro is $150 -$199.
In my opinion if you don't plan to use them on an XBOX I'd put 100 bucks on top and get some Virpil pedals. They feel a lot smoother and are less prone to break.
@@WatchMysh Yes, after watching your video I think the extra spend is worth it.
@@shredman59 if you're not in a rush: Winwing's Skywalker pedals shouldn't be far away. They look like they come with included dampeners. Might be some competition for Virpil / Crosswind
@@WatchMyshI'm not in a rush due to finances...LOL. But I will check those out. I need a new yoke and throttle quadrant first. My saitek pro is limiting.
@@shredman59 Hey, did you get a yoke, yet? I'm thinking about getting into civil aviation and did some research. Maybe I'll get a honeycomb? It's a whole new market I'm not familiar with. Flight sims really are a vicious rabbit hole lol...
I can’t get mine to work with my velocity one Flightstick. (The actual stick, not the yoke). Can’t find any way to solve this issue. I’ve even made sure to update both to current versions. But still nothing. I’m looking to try one more time before assuming the pedals are bricked and using them as target practice. If anyone could give suggestions, that would be great!
What does TurtleBeach say?
@@WatchMysh tech support believes it could be software related but informed me that since the problem can not be identified, I’m not eligible to get a replacement. So refund is out of the question. Again, I’ve tried to get them to work for over year. And decided to try again one more time before turning it into Swiss cheese.
@@GALLUS_PRIME that's bad news. Weird that you can even update the pedals... Well maybe sell them as a source for replacement parts and invest into some proper new ones?
@@WatchMysh despite downloading the app on my console to update them and even the one for the stick, I’m still at a loss. I’ll give it a little bit of time to see if I can find a way to factory/hard reset the pedals. Tbh I rather not let it waste someone else’s money and patience.
what about the VKB T-Rudder Pedals?
Good stuff but no dedicated Tor brakes
Virpil vs MFG? Is Virpil better?
Never tried the Virpils myself but people seem to like them. Crosswinds are great. Winwing will release pedals with pre-installed dampeners soon-ish.
@WatchMysh Thanks for the quick reply!
I'm going to do some homework on the two.
You sold me on the WinWing HOTAS. I'm probably going to purchase it tonight. If their rudder pedals were for available, I'd probably get it now as well.
Tis' the season 🎄😎🤣
@@RabbitHoleAdventures lol nice! Which grip will you get?
@@WatchMysh The Orion 2 max with F-15EX II looks like it'll fit the bill just fine 🙂
@@RabbitHoleAdventures My daily driver on the rig. You'll be very happy with it!
now when the winwing pedals are out, these makes no sense in my opinion
Absolutely. The only thing the WinWings are missing in comparison are a set of springs. But I guess WinWing will add them in the future. Everything else is vastly superior and several leagues above the TB set. They need to sell these below 200 so be a viable option.
None of those pedals are good. None of those allows to put heels on ground.
