Brake Button Stops Working

Post by cfelix »

When I first load the 182 into FSX, the brake button assigned to my joystick works fine. When I apply either of the differential brake pedals and then release it, the brake button no longer works. Both the button and the pedals are programmed in FSUIPC. Any ideas?

This is as intended and consistent with default FSX behavior.

I notice that with many other aircraft (e.g., default 172 & A2A Cub) the button assigned to the FSUIPC brake function (65588) will continue to work once all differential braking is released. Is there a setting in the "aircraft.cfg" that is doing this or is it caused by specific programming for the A2A 182?

No, it's not settable.
Fsuipc does some things with the brakes differently than stock fsx does and we have to make it that way to keep it compatible.

Charlie, see my reply to your thread over in Pete's FSUIPC forum.

I changed the way my toe brakes are assigned in FSUIPC and now I can use both the toe brakes and the button
on my stick to activate brakes.
