Test the Rudder Pedal on ProSim A320

Product Overview

The CnTech A320 Rudder Pedals (RPL) are the rudder control unit of the CNFSimulator.A320 series. Each unit reproduces the real pedal 1:1 in form and in its three-axis layout, integrating three independent control signals — rudder, left brake and right brake. Return springs and a damper generate the force feel: travel is smooth fore and aft, the pedals centre as soon as the foot is released, and the two brake axes work independently for real-aircraft differential braking. The assembly is built in metal and painted in the colours of the real aircraft.

Two communication protocols are fitted as standard: signal can leave through the Type-C port as a standard HID game controller, driver-free and plug-and-play, or over a CAN bus for use with CnTech iFSim.Ready. A single unit connects directly to MSFS, Prepar3D and X-Plane, or combines with other CNFSimulator.A320 components into a complete cockpit. In a dual set the captain’s and first officer’s pedals are linked by a rudder link rod at a centre distance of 1060 ± 5 mm.

• Three independent axes per unit — left brake, right brake and rudder — as on the A320.
• Captain’s and FO pedals mechanically linked at a 1060 ± 5 mm centre distance.
• Spring-and-damper feel: smooth travel, crisp centring, comfortable over long sessions.
• CAN bus and driver-free USB HID over Type-C — plug in and the system sees a joystick.

Key Features

• Three-Axis Layout
  Three independent axes per unit — left brake, right brake and rudder — laid out exactly as on the A320.
• Captain / FO Linkage
  The two units are linked by a rudder link rod at a 1060 mm centre distance, adjustable by ± 5 mm.
• Spring-and-Damper Feel
  Return springs and a damper give smooth travel and a crisp return, close to the real aircraft.
• Differential Braking
  Independent left and right brakes for differential steering and single-side braking.
• CAN Bus Communication
  Stable, interference-resistant transmission over long distances; pairs with CnTech iFSim.Ready.
• Driver-Free USB HID
  Standard HID output over Type-C — recognised as a joystick instantly, with no driver needed.
• Robust and Durable
  Metal frame and base plate, fixed with 6 × M4×15 countersunk screws.
• Single or Dual Configuration
  One unit per crew station; add the link rod for a dual set. Limit bolts simplify alignment.

Product Components

Component	Description
Pedal Plate	Metal pedal modelled on the A320 pedal, with ribbed anti-slip tread and fore-and-aft travel.
Left / Right Brake Axes	Two independent brake signals per unit for the left and right wheels, supporting differential braking.
Rudder Axis	An independent rudder signal, output together with the mechanical linkage between the two units.
Centring Springs and Damper	The springs supply the centring force; the damper suppresses rebound.
Pedal Position Adjuster	“PULL TO ADJUST” is a cosmetic replica of the real part — decorative only, with no adjustment function.
Neutral-Position Limit Bolts	Installation datum for a dual set; remove the bolts once the units are fixed at the centre distance.
Rudder Link Rod	Connects the two pedals with ± 5 mm of length adjustment for captain / FO linkage.
Control Board and Interfaces	USB Type-C × 1; RJ45 × 2 (CAN bus IN / OUT).
Base Plate and Mounting Holes	Metal base plate, 6 × φ4.5 mm countersunk through holes, fixed with M4×15 screws.
