Interesting. Went flying with a disabled pilot a couple of times who had a special setup of two handles to control the rudder pedals. Sort of like steering a caterpiller.

This looks pretty cool. Wonder who will model it into a flightsim model first?

Already been done as far back as FS2002, it's called Ercoupe, no rudder pedals.
