Hello everybody!

I'm building yoke and rudder pedals controls for my university project of Cessna 172 Skyhawk simulator. Is there anyone that might have information about range of motion, spacing or dimensions of cessna controls? Anything would be usefull. Can't find any valuable information on the net. Links are almost always outdated.

Thanks in advance,
Adam

Thank you for your replay.

I am interested, of course! I will be grateful for anything.

Right now the only thing I need the most is range of motion - angle and translation on both pedals and yoke to calculate which motor to use and what gear reduction I need to apply. Next thing is the spacing of rudder pedals.
