I would prefer not to have the heel slide wedge installed. I found it unnecessary and removed them. Most pilots would agree that they shouldn't and shouldn't be on airplanes. Otherwise they are amazing. My only problem isn't the pedals, it's my gaming chair. It's on wheels, and when you use the steering wheel pedals the seat sometimes slips off. You might consider buying "SlipstickGrippers" that lock casters to prevent your chair from rolling back. I have and they work great.
