Actually thinking about it you could use Player 2 up/down/left/right as 4 more inputs...as long as the wires are there in the cable.

Edit: actually that might be harder than it sounds...you might need to build a circuit - see the link I gave above for more info.

seems simple enough, well, my yoke must already use one of those inputs because it has a throttle (its a suncom g force plus) so all i would need is figure out how to build a pair of pedals that use a pot, correct?

Yep, if one of the P2 axes is being used already, you could wire up 2 analog pot-based pedals to the remaining 1 axis...this is called a single-axis pedal setup.
