Creeping forward with parking brake on

Post by julietsierrappl »

Hello guys, really enjoying your C172 in P3DV4 right now, works like a charm.

One question, has anyone noticed that the plane creeps forward slowly when the parking brake is set and the RPM is anything above 1000.

The only way to stop the creep is to go completely idle and then the voltage light starts flashing of course. Just curious, is this a limitation of the sim or
maybe something that only I see?

Yes unfortunate limitation of the platform and slight strangeness with the way to two brakes parking and normal are modelled on the platform. To get around this you can use the standard brakes which will hold you better etc.

thanks,
