Hi Warren,

Baron-Rouge[BZH] has tried this new driver:
http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/44...r?osid=1&file=
Before,he had pb with his wheel(g25)and now,it works perfectly.

For my Driving Force Pro,I have a pb with Logitech profiler(ver.5.01).Therefore I had installed lgs 5.00.

So mistrust!

Default My G25 Pedal Platform

Thanks to Krister Larsson for all his advice and helpful photos, I have been able to sort out my G25 pedal height problem, which resulted from my new workstation.
Basically I simply copied Krister's setup but made some slight mods as recommended by Krister. I made the base longer to prevent tipping, and added a base plate to which I glued rubber matting designed to prevent mats from slipping on carpet. It works a treat.

Nothing scientific Mehmet. It was simply that after I changed desks, the wheel was way too high, it was hurting my shoulders and felt weird after being used to it being lower. However as soon as I adjusted the height of the chair to fix this, I could hardly reach the pedals. So I just put some blocks under the pedals until it felt comfy (for me) and then made the platform to the same height.
I think the heights will vary depending on our physical builds and how long our legs are, but if you want the heights that I have used, I can measure them to give you an idea.

hmm .... thx for details Warren ..... had also check some different ergonomic stylos for wheel, monitor, chair, pedals.
But i am sure there is a "formula" for optimize ergonomic distance to wheel & pedals & chair..etc... depending from your body size.
Maybe i call Adrian Newey up.....

I use a secretairy feet rest, it can be adjusted. I drilled a few holes in it and mounted the pedal unit on it.

It rests against the wall and i taped it with ducktape on the floor.
