The Pro Pedals should work with any stick/device combination, though for IL2 you can't have more than four separate devices. You will have to use two different software packages to do things like profiling(admittedly this is less of an issue for pedals).

When it comes to pedals, I would rather go for Saitek over CH. Width is the sole reason for this, as the CH pedals and too close together for me.
I'd recommend looking up the pedal spacing and placing your feet at that distance, if you feel you can comfortable slide backwards and forewards for prolonged periods of time, go for CH quality.
Should you go with Saitek, I'd take a look at the Combat Pedals. I own the regular ones and feel they're at too flat of an angle(I do sit low to the ground), which you can adjust on the combat pedals but not the regular ones.


For the Warthog, I can only say I've had the opportunity to fiddle with a store demo with the full intent of buying it, and had to walk away.
The stick feels extremely heavy(I come from an x52Pro, so a CH user could have even more trouble) which makes quick adjustments a chore. I'm also not a very physical guy, so I can imagine my arms getting sore after a while.
I'd also look into the failure rate of the Warthog, last time I checked(admittedly a while ago) it was higher than I'd like.
