A320 rudder pedals

[lde1988]

I'm currently building a full scale, static A320 simulator. Do any of the 320 pilots on here have any idea of the force required to depress each rudder pedal. I'm sure that you won't have a precise figure, but any ideas would be a huge help.

Cheers

To apply full rudder or full brake pressure? Different forces... but I don't know the values...

Chrisworld..... 150lbs?
Bit of a random figure, is that the force you use when doing you flight control checks?? I am sure you bench-press 250lbs in the gym too.

Having access to (and being able to match) that sort of info is one of the reasons your Level D sim is so expensive. The pedal force / response curves, and the dynamic release characteristics, are all an absolute b***er to get right, so good luck, you'll need it!
