How To Build Pressure For Brakes

[Blackdog_kt]

I use a sequence of short taps but there are probably other options as well for people who don't have rudders with toe brakes (i use just a sidewinder stick). The sim supports "button and axis" type of control assignments.

I haven't tried this but it could be interesting for people that don't have rudder/toe brake controllers.

1) Map the brakes to B+stick back. This is equivalent to activating the brakes for both wheels.
For differential brakes in luftwaffe aircraft you would need to do the same for the left and right brake separately with a different key for each (for example < and stick back for left brake, > and stick back for right brake). For RAF aircraft you don't need to because the differential braking is controlled by pushing the rudder left/right while holding the "both brakes" key down, so you don't need to map individual brake keys.
2) If you just press B nothing should happen.
3) If you press B and pull the stick back the brakes should work in an analog fashion, the more you pull the stick the more braking power.

This would also have a welcome effect in aircraft with a tail-wheel, the more you brake the more pressure you are also putting on the elevators so that you don't nose over.

I always forget to try this among the other things i test, so try it out if you want and let me know how it works
