Hydraulic Damper universal kit za V1-3 pedale

Stickiness SOLUTION

Milan's ampener assembly videos are great, awesome engineering. V2 pedal works fine over a decade of hard "combat" and helos.
I covered the rod of the dampener with silicone grease rich and solved the sticky, bumpy feeling., not damaging seals inside hopefully..

Should have done this earlier

I've had the V2 pedals for a few years now and I was talking my friend into getting a set, then I saw the damper, so I figured I'd pick it up. I've always raved about these pedals. but holy crap the damper makes it so so so much better. If you're buying a crosswinds setup do yourself a favor and spend the extra $50 for the damper.

MFG damper

It ads sooo much realism to pedals. I could adjust the feel very close to real full motion sim pedal feel. It also prevents from accidentaly pushing the pedals too much

Best Rudder Pedals available just got Better!

For me this was the Icing on the cake. Works great. Installation was a snap on V3 pedals.

this is a no brainer

Don't miss out on this dampener kit. This is what makes your pedal set feel like the real thing, as good as it gets of course.
Also, the service provided by Milan is superb. He reacts swiftly and accurately and thinks along with the problem at hand.
So my dampener started to leak air in after two years of intense use and after addressing the issue and discussing it briefly, I was provided with a new dampener kit. Do buy with MFG, you will not regret it.

Love it.

I already loved my Crosswinf V3 Rudder. Now it is even better

Hydraulic Damper

This is an excellent accessory for the pedals, giving more realistic feeling when using the rudder. My suggestion is to make it a part of the default design of the pedals.

Must have for helicopters, great for jets

Unhook the spring and dial up the damper for helicopters, never fight the spring centering, again.
For jets dial the damper a bit down, but leave it on. Helps with small movements and reduces pilot induced oscillations from overcompensating, for me.

Very nice upgrade

The pedals are already an excellent product that totally changed the sim experience. I added the soft spring and this damper and it really changes the feel again. Excellent quality product, I had some shipping damage and it was addressed quickly. The pedal feel is so much smoother, more linear and controllable. Relatively low cost upgrade that is well worth the investment.

A great addon

The pedals have a smoother mouvement with these dampers. This is a very good quality product, a must have for the Crosswind rudders

Upgrade worth the money

I think the title says it all. Upgrading was super easy due to the video instruction. The quality is superb. The feel is outstanding.

Damper Kit!

Get it! Absolutely transforms already great rudder pedals to much more realistic and fluid with no center detent. My crosswind version had 3 plates under the front mount so it was a little different than the video, but keep them in order and you won't have any issues. Easy install and absolutely worth it!

10/10 No doubt about it!

After a few months of consistent use, I believe it's time to share my review. I am truly amazed by the exceptional quality of this damper. It was easy to install, and the adjustable feedback is absolutely phenomenal. Thanks to this modification, my pedals feel significantly smoother!

Defective

My damper was defective from day 1. It feels very sticky and impossible to do small precise movements. I tried contacting support but got no answer ever. My first message was even deleted... Not sure what's going on but hasn't worked for me.

• 1 od 2 ljudi označilo je ovaj komentar korisnim.

a great addition to a already exellant product

I purchased the damper with the Crosswind V3 Pedals and tested the feel of the pedal with and without the damper.  The damper adds another layer of perfection to the pedals, and honestly, I can't think of any reason why someone would not want to add this to the product.

Simply the best

Amazing product! Makes the Crosswinds even better. Next step maybe FFB ?! ;)

Dampener

It will change your sim flying experience gor the best.
You cant even imagine, just try it, seriously!

Super nice!

I personally had a little trouble reassembling my V2s after installing this but once I figured that out and had everything back in place, its rock solid and so smooth. love it.

smooth rudder movement

The damper make the rudders move even smoother and without overshooting rudder response. It´s a must with the rudder pedals.

HYDRAULIC DAMPER UNIVERSAL KIT FOR V1-3 PEDALS

Arrived safe and sound, no customs charges to UK which was great.

Easily fitted watching the Youtube video, far more realistic rudder pedal feel with the hydraulic damper fitted..

Graet Purchase....very happy.

Damper Kit

Simply a must have bit of kit to make the rudder pedals feel so much smoother and more precise. The feeling you get once the damper is installed is amazing. Make sure to buy this damper kit when you order your pedals

Just installed these.

Wonderful! Add a very nice damped feel to the pedals. For such a cheap upgrade it really makes the Crosswind feel great!

Game changer

Quality and fit is fantastic. Flying GA planes in MSFS 2020 feels a lot more like the real plane after the upgrade. (I am a student pilot).

MFG pedal improvement

Decided to purchase this damper kit to fit to my version 2 pedals. Installation was very straightforward as I had watched Milan's video on how to do it. Now it is installed the feel of the pedals is much smoother. Really excellent mod for these pedals.

Great Addition!

All pedals should come with this this built in! Love the feel and added accuracy of the pedals now.

Damper kit

Easy to install, great addon for a great pair of pedals. Must buy IMO.

Outstanding Quality

I orderd the V3 Pedals incl. the damper and it is a another dimension for my flightsim. The quality of the Pedals incl. the damper is oustanding. Thanks for that.

Best quality/price

This hydraulic damper enhance the usage of my MFG rudder pedal significantly making it to work smoother especially before landing. It is high quality made and simple to install. (tutorial video). Customer service is also perfect and the price worth the price equivalent to this product.

Damper V3 fitment

Excellent addition to this already great performing set of rudder pedals. Highly recommend fitting these.

Also great service from Milan many thanks for your excellent service.

• 1 od 1 ljudi označilo je ovaj komentar korisnim.

Great

Instructions were easy to follow and the damper acts exactly as advertised

Not sure

I'm still not sure, if the damper is really necessary. For me the difference in the feel and use of the rudder pedals (which ere almost perfect) is rather marginal.
Beside this the quality of the damper kit is outstanding, like the rudder pedals itself.

very good

Greatly improved my experience

The hydraulic damper really makes you feel more immersed with realistic flight. It really adds to making the movement more fluid depending on how you set it. Really wonderful piece of kit.

Great addition to the MFG Crosswind V2 rudder pedals

The addition of the damper to the MFG Crosswind V2 rudder pedals add additional realism to the flight control feel and I highly recommend them. Adding the damper to the rudder pedals is fairly straightforward, and instruction is provided via Youtube. Make sure you pay close attention when disassembling the bearings, as my version of the rudder pedals (V2) differed from the model in the video.

• 1 od 1 ljudi označilo je ovaj komentar korisnim.

Damper for V2s

The resistance this creates stops me from having to add pressure with my opposite foot to push against and steady my aim. Install was simple after watching the video and I'm looking forward to trying it with helos

A "Must have" addition

This is a "Must Have" addition to the rudder pedals if you want more realistic pressure/friction. It final piece of the puzzle for a perfect rudder pedal experience.

• 1 od 1 ljudi označilo je ovaj komentar korisnim.

Highly recommend this accessory

I ordered the damper kit with my Crosswind 3's based on other reviews and recommendations...glad I did. They make a HUGE difference in feel and realism in my opinion. Still trying different adjustment levels to find my final preference but they are worth every penny! Thanks Milan

Nice Upgrade...

...gives a much smoother feeling to the pedals.
you also need a bit more power to move the pedal.
The movement is much more precise now ... Many Thank
(Had a bad damper... Milan gave me an instant replacement ...Top Service ! )

Damper Upgrade

The buying decision was not hard at all, tested a damper on friend's pedals which impressed me. My Crosswind V2's could only get better with this upgrade.

Ordering and delivery top class as usual. Installation was a breeze after looking at the video for it. Opted for the centered setup. Now the feel is totally different, much more precise. Still testing for the best damping settings, but getting there.

Again a big thank you to Milan for Making the Crosswind pedals even better :)

Hydraulic Damper kit on V3 pedals

The installation could not be easier and the damper adds a great feel to the pedal set. Great product!

Great addition to very good pedals

Good quality and gives a very good feeling when using the pedals. It's a big difference to the setup with just the spring.
Also thanks for the great support from Milan!

A wonderful addition to a great product!

My damper arrived in the USA quickly, in just a few days and in good condition. It's a beautiful, quality choice of damper product and like all MFG products, has well-made components to attach it to my rudder pedals.

I'm glad I got the retrofit version for my V-3 pedals, as it offered me several different mounting choices. I found one that works well for me and is different from the V-3-only version.

The damping is just buttery-smooth, it's adjustable smoothly over a very wide range, so should satisfy anybody looking for just a little more realism in their flight sim. Haven't tried it in helicopter configuration yet (tension spring disconnected), but I'm sure it would benefit that as well.

great addition to the pedals

Game changer, at least for me

• 1 od 1 ljudi označilo je ovaj komentar korisnim.

Highly recommended

I usually fly airliners and always felt the pedals too light or jittery around the center position.
That is now gone completely. Installation needed only 10 minutes.

Damper kit

This kit really does improve the feel of the rudders. Nicely adjustable, easy to fit, and very well made.

Great Add On

I got this last week and really like the effect it has on the rudder pedals. They appear to be so much smoother than just using the spring. Great Job

Great addon!

Very happy with Hydraulic Damper. It adds a level of realism that was missing in the stock MFG V2 Pedals that I have enjoyed for the last 4 years.

• 1 od 1 ljudi označilo je ovaj komentar korisnim.

Very Smooth

The build quality of this hydraulic damper really surprised me. It's a very high quality part. The installation video was easy to follow. This product really smoothed out the operation of the rudder pedals, I highly recommend!

Hydraulic Damper Universal Kit for V1-3 Pedals

They arrived quickly and thanks to the video on how to install them, it turned into an easy and quick process. They work well and I am totally pleased with this purchase. Very glad that I ordered the 6mm HEX key.

Mod Kit

I have to say, even with COVID world wide, my Mod Kit had arrived inside 2 weeks. That to New Zealand from Croatia. Easy to install. They feel totally different from using the original spring. Great stuff Milan.

Just a note, nothing to do with this company but I had 2 times an email and a txt saying if I didn’t want any delay with my order that I would need to pay. One guy who txt me from Australia sent me a request but I had already received it. I suspect it some people in the sorting points trying to make some extra coin.

I didn't expect much.

I honestly didn't expect much from this mod kit.
I figured the base pedals I bought in 2017 was very good indeed to this day.

But why not try I figured.
During the rather simple installation, I honestly started to expect even less.

Well that changed immediately as I fired up my DCS Huey with the centering spring disconnected.
The pedals where no less than transformed, it's like having an in position trim system.
You put them where you need them, and they stay there.

Then I try the hornet, hook the spring back on, and again the pedals are transformed, even in this aircraft module many would cliam "you don't need rudder pedals for the hornet" the pedals are transformed into something utterly different, something better.
Can't wait to get the time to setup in the F14.

Absolutely Perfect

Besides the arrival to the states in a matter of days, this damper kit is an amazing piece of technology and craftsmanship… installation was a breeze following the on line video. The difference in feel was and is great. The action is more fluid and realistic. The adjustment make it so easy to get the pedal movement to that sweet spot of your preference. I, personally like a higher tension so that I am not making slight course corrections from just resting my feet on the pedals for an extended period of time. That feature along with the ability to adjust the tension spring let me dial in that perfect amount of tension that I was looking for.

All in all, it is exactly what I would expect from Milan. Well Done!

Perfect upgrade

A perfect add on for the pedals. Thanks very much!

MFG products are top notch

Really like the added smoothness and damping resistance on my V2 pedals. It now matches the damped resistance feel of the rest of my flight gear perfectly. I added some $5 bike shock lube (designed to preserve the integrity of the damper piston seals) to the shaft of the piston and that got rid of any slight static friction, so it's buttery smooth and feels perfect.

Excellent product!

Fast shipment, excellent build quality and clear instructional video available.
Very happy

MFG Peddal Damper -Excellent Quality

Easy to install and amazing value for money, clearly care about the cost to the end customer and the quality suggests they could have charged more. Great feel and fully adjustable very happy indeed thank you!

Pure Genius Engineering!

Bought this unit for my MFG's and it absolutely creates an even more of the sensation of real world flying..the added "resistance" makes the control so much more like a real plane...My legs are getting a good work out in the sim just like they do when flying in the real world! Highly recommend the kit for anyone looking for an even more enjoyable time in the sim.

Super service

Once the product was available again, I made the purchase and couldn’t be happier. Easy installation following online video. Package arrived quickly after purchase and was kept in the loop with tracking. Only used it for 6 hrs now but what a difference.
Thanks for an excellent upgrade.

The good now even better

The damper is solid, easy to mount with the instruction and makes my rudder pedals even more realistic. I enjoy both every time that I am using my sim to stay current with my IFR flying. Milan, stay with the high quality in your products, That always pays off for you and your company!

Hydraulic Damper V1,2 & 3

What a difference this product makes!. The Crosswind pedals are absolutely fantastic but the hydraulic damper set take flight simulation to a new level! Many, many thanks Milan from a very satisfied customer. Thoroughly recommendable!

Feels great

Easy to install this upgrade and makes flying much more fun.
Especially flying helicopters without the spring coupled feels so good now.

Hydraulic Dampener retrofit

Easy to install and works well. Very nice feel and can now use the pedals for flying Heli's when I sidconnect the centering spring. Great upgrade :)

Works Great!

Just buy it!

Works Nicely, reassembly instructions could be clearer

My only complaint is that my pedals (v2) did not look exactly like the pedals in the video (v1, I guess). I was able to get it back together OK, but when the bearing started falling out all I wanted was a blow up diagram of how to put them together properly. The video jumps after the last bolt is taken off so there's nothing to gather from it.

The v1 to v2 upgrade video gave me enough to go on, but trying to find YT videos while handling grease covered bearings is no fun.

Game Changer!

Totally different feel to original. You feel the back pressure from the pedals… Worth adding to your setup… new or older pedals… Highly recommended!

Feeling improvment

After two weeks of daily use (1 to 2 hrs/day)
I do confirmed the rudder feeling and control is really improved. Allowing tiddly up and down in my Magnificent flying machine ;-)

Incredible transformation

These pedals were amazing before this upgrade but now with the dampener installed they feel absolutely amazing! This is a no brainer, if you own these pedals this is a must have upgrade.

• 4 od 4 ljudi označilo je ovaj komentar korisnim.

They only get better

This is an amazing upgrade for the already awesome MFG Crosswinds. The damper is capable of really making you have to work. Even at low settings it stops any oscilation at the center if I were to take my foot off from full deflection. I haven't taken my spring off and flow a helo yet, but I can't help but imagine it's going to be an amazing experience. Some disassembly and reassembly required, but honestly, Milan's pedals are designed in a way that makes it easy. Pay attention to how things fit when you're removing bolts. Take pictures. You'll be up and running in no time with this thing.

Hydraulique Damper

Bonjour,
Ce matériel apporte un plus pour le pilotage des avions notamment les avions à hélices .Il est de très bonne qualité et le montage n'est pas compliqué . j'en suis très satisfait , je l'utilise avec la came C 5 . La vis de réglage de la dureté du vérin permet d'obtenir une large plage d'utilisation ( de la plus souple à la plus dure ).Le ressort ne sert plus qu'à ramener le palonnier au neutre .
Cordialement

dumper is OK ;)

Dumper is not necessary, but it smooth the spring oscillation, so in some cases it is helpful. Overall feel is also better. I can recommend it for anyone looking for better realism factor.

Smooth is just a word

We all love our midrange MFGs, they're awesome! Great pedals, great cam. Not as great as the top of the line Thrustmasters, but who cares. Seriously. They're good value. Now screw that dampener on them to take the "springy" feel out. Ohhh boy, you're gonna be suprised. Now you will feel that hydraulic feel, that smooth resistance, and your MFGs will become something that can compete with the top of the line, but for much less, and easy to work on and fix! 5☆ from me! My Spit feels like something else!

Shipping was crazy fast, and installation was a breeze. The damper takes the MFG pedals to the next level. I have much better control in my favorite sims. Highly recommended.

Crosswind Damper Kit

Excellent upgrade! All parts very high quality ... the fit: impeccable. Everything went together without any problems. The instructional video was very clear and easy to follow. Very, very pleased.

• 1 od 1 ljudi označilo je ovaj komentar korisnim.

Love it!

I think it is absolutely worth it. When you increase the dampening the pedal movements become much smoother. The only downside I can see is that as you increase the dampening you need to also tighten the spring or change you cam as the spring will be a bit too weak to perfectly re-center the pedals. As you fly it's not as big of a deal though as you normally have your feet on the pedals and make small adjustments. It has perfect fit, easy and fast to mount after watching the assembly video and it also make the pedals look cool.

A great addon

Very pleased with this addon for my V2 pedals. Easy to mount after watching the instruction video.

Great product!!!

Upgraded both my V1 and V2.. Install easy, Definite improvement for an already awesome set of hardware!!!

Good investment

Nice piece of equipment, easy to install.

Excellent product!

Higly recommended upgrade to my MFG pedals. Realy improves realism.

Greatest pedals just got better!

The best rudderpedals got better with the hydraulic damper kit. Easy to install, easy to tune to your liking. It feels great, smooth and better rudder operation.

Super

Everybody with crosswind pedals,must have the dampers ,its a must have;It makes the already very good pedals even much beter.concrats to milan you are great man .

Damper for V2 pedals

Delivery very prompt and as estimated.
Took me about 20 min to fit - no problems.
Seems good quality and really adds to the flying experience.

Working Beautifully!

The damper is great for planes, and even better for helicopters making operation excellent with the centering spring removed.

Straightforward, rugged, great improvement

This is a high quality improvement for your Crosswinds, already the best pedals for your simulations. The damper makes them great for helos too. Not simple to fit, but straightforward, if you know what I mean. Good value. Many thanks!

This makes them perfect

As much as I loved my pedals, I thought they were lacking in resistance and were too easy to push and difficult to smoothly get back to center. The damper on my v2 pedals gives the perfect amount of resistance I was looking for, makes them super smooth and recenters without any bouncing. If you have a set of crosswind rudder pedals you seriously need to get this damper.

Awesome addition to the pedals

This is really nice and well built. The feel is so much better just the springs. It definitely feels more realistic for me based on real world flight experience.

Wonderful Upgrade

Usual efficient shipping from Milan even when I made a mistake about the model (i'm on a V2), watched the video and took my time an installed in 30 mins or so. Adds a fantastic improvement to the feeling of the pedals. Recommended.

Damper Kit for V1/2

Ok---- just get these !!! Adds even more realism and feel to these already great rudder pedals. Be sure to watch Milan's how to video on installation--- hmmm, I saw some new combat pedals in the video------ Perfect !!!!! Thanks Milan !!!!!!
