3. CONFIGURING  

BRAKES AND RUDDER 
HARDNESS

We offer the possibility to adapt the rudder and brake hardness to your 
preferences. There are two modes available harder and softer.

Brake hardness

In the rear part of pedals there is a spring that offers resistance when the 
brakes are pressed as you can see in the picture:

You can choose to use two springs for harder resistance or only one in order 
to obtain a softer resistance. (Two more springs are supplied)
You will need an Allen wrench n. 3 (not included) to change the springs.
