Differential braking seems to be different from how it was before. It used to be gradually controllable between left, balanced and right. Now the brake pressure is either completely full left or full right with anything by totally centered rudder. There's no differential braking other than fully one-sided.
Design fix or a new bug? I have not yet tried any re-installing to see if it would make a difference since I don't even know if it's intentional or not.
Differential braking after C172
Re: Differential braking after C172
Haven't tried it for me, but have you installed core patch 1.5.2?

Re: Differential braking after C172
I think I had the 1.51. Installing C172 probably updated Core to 1.52 equivalent version..
The "reversed" brakes on Spitfire explains why it functions differently. I still don't understand the "reversed" part. It still functions toward the same direction, i.e to assist rather than battle against the rudder control. It's just that rather than being gradual, it's ON/OFF. No intermediate degrees of differential brake control: full left, full right or fully balanced brake power.
To clarify, my rudder is still fully capable of partial rudder control so it's not poor device calibration or a result of short circuit within the hardware. I only have problems with partial differential braking and the associated brake pressure gauge. (I did take apart my joystick to fix broken solders and do some hardware "calibration" of potentiometer nullzones but I did verify it with calibration utility that nothing is shorted out after I tampered with the my hardware. I started working differently after installing C172.)
I guess I'll install v1.52 update in case Spitfire's Core is in some limbo between versions 1.51 and 1.52.
It's of course possible that the behavior persists and is intentional part of v1.52, and that differential brakes on Spitfire were supposed to be ON/OFF in nature (at least toward differential braking, even if there was better control of overall brake power).

Re: Differential braking after C172
You will need to install the latest core update to update the warbirds to 1.5.2

Re: Differential braking after C172
I installed 1.52 then C172 Hotfix. And the brake issue persists. Either 1.52 didn't solve it, or the Hotfix broke it again.
I could of course run 1.52 again to see if it makes a difference.
