Charlie Rudder Pedals
GA pilots completing a Honeycomb deck who want metal pedals with Hall-effect longevity and real toe brakes.
The Charlie completes the all-Honeycomb GA flight deck, and unlike the plastic Alpha and Bravo it goes aluminum. A belt-drive rudder axis runs on the latest-generation Hall-effect magnetic sensors, so there are no pots to drift or wear, and variable-pressure toe brakes give proportional braking that cheaper sliding pedals fudge. Foot angle is adjustable for comfort, a tension knob tunes the rudder, and the anti-slip base uses rubber pads plus reversible carpet spikes. It is more expensive than the Logitech entry pedals, but the Hall-effect sensors and metal frame are what you pay for.
Worth buying for the right builder, but read the warnings before it lands in your cart.
