difficulty setting the parking brake on

Post by Dominique »

Something I still cannot do after quite a few flights now is to have the parking brake stay put when starting up the engine. I follow closely the manual (p 19) to no avail :( . I cannot set it on. I suspect that the CH Pro pedals oscillate ever so slightly and send, on its own, the release signal. Is there a way in the config file to alter the sensitivity of the parking brake so that it's released if i push the pedals half way down only ?

I have a different set of pedals but on mine I can adjust the "freeplay" or deadzones that may do the trick you want. Also I have the parking brakes on a hot key.

Hope that helps,

Thanks,so it comes from my setup. I'll try the hot key trick, tuning the dead zone couldn't do it.
