I desire to move my rudder pedals forward as far as possible for additional leg room. I am also going to move rudder cables outside the pedals and installing power flaps and an anti-servo motor to reduce the center console height.

By hanging the pedals I can move the master cylinders to the pilot side. Does anybody have any information about hanging the rudder pedals?

Thank you. Tom

How does hanging the pedals get you more room versus mounting them on the floor? Just curious.

You might get an eyeball on a local RV. They are everywhere.

My rudder pedals hang when I do a roll. :-)
