Snowman Posted February 14, 2017 Posted February 14, 2017 I have noticed that the parking brake isn't working as expected. It works before first take-off but after one sortie I usually set the parking brake again and when I'm starting to taxi again the parking brake isn't doing anything to hold back the aircraft. It just roles away like I've would never had set the parking brake. This doesn't really bother me there are far more important bugs to fix. Keep up the good work LNS. __________________ Intel i7-7700K @ 5.1GHz, Gigabyte Z170XP SLI 32 GB Corsair Vengeance @ 2666 Mhz (Stock 2400 Mhz), Gigabyte GTX 1080 Windfoce OC , PSU 650W Seasonic EK Watercooling (Open loop) Windows 10 Pro x64 Thrustmaster HOTAS Warthog + MFG Crosswind + Thrustmaster MFD
ridgeback68 Posted February 14, 2017 Posted February 14, 2017 You have to press and keep holding the wheel brake while you engage the parking brake. I stumbled on this by accident but think I've read it since in the manual or somewhere else.
Snowman Posted February 14, 2017 Author Posted February 14, 2017 I know how to set the parking brake like that. The issue occurs when after I have landed and sets the parking brake but even if the parking brake is set and I throttle up the aircrafts starts moving without any resistance from the brakes. __________________ Intel i7-7700K @ 5.1GHz, Gigabyte Z170XP SLI 32 GB Corsair Vengeance @ 2666 Mhz (Stock 2400 Mhz), Gigabyte GTX 1080 Windfoce OC , PSU 650W Seasonic EK Watercooling (Open loop) Windows 10 Pro x64 Thrustmaster HOTAS Warthog + MFG Crosswind + Thrustmaster MFD
Kamov52 Posted February 14, 2017 Posted February 14, 2017 I have the same problem. With the parking brake set, the Viggen can always roll away!

outbaxx Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 I have the opposite feeling, it's like it's always on. If I start rolling and pull back to ground idle, the aircraft will stop like if there is brakes applied. The nose wheel compress just before the stop. I could be wrong of course but why would it compress if it just rolled to a stop?
Zabuzard Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 Please check if you accidentally have set the brakes to your thrust axis. This often happens with the default setting.
outbaxx Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 I've checked that, and I checked with ctrl+enter to see if the brakes move if I move anything else. So your nose wheel does not compress if the aircraft roll to a halt without break input ? It's visible to me from external view .
