JetCat Posted December 25, 2021 Posted December 25, 2021 Hi ace pilots, I wanted to tell that the F-18 Hornet speed brake has a bug. When the speed brake on the Hornet is extended, it can no longer be retracted. I have tried every button config (OFF, Retract/OFF, and retract bound to STRG+B or to various of my HOTAS buttons) but the speed brake does not respond anymore after releasing, and stays fully or half extended. Please fix this bug because I need the speed brake at all landings. I wish you a wonderful christmas time, kind regards JetCat
razo+r Posted December 25, 2021 Posted December 25, 2021 I have no issues retracting the speed brake.

JetCat Posted December 25, 2021 Author Posted December 25, 2021 I have just flown the F-18 again and still the speed brake comes out but does not react anymore as soon as I try to put it in again (it goes not in and not out anymore, and is completely stuck.) Normally I have to press and hold the button B to extend the speedbrake and hold LSTRG + B to retract, but this does not work anymore. 2 hours ago, BIGNEWY said: please include a short track replay. Sorry I have never done this before - how do I make a track replay? Do you mean a video and upload it on YouTube? Yes I have a game recorder installed
razo+r Posted December 25, 2021 Posted December 25, 2021 Fly a mission and demonstrate the issue, then end the mission and in the debriefing press "save track" at the bottom. Then upload that track here.
JetCat Posted December 25, 2021 Author Posted December 25, 2021 Thanks I will do this when I find a bug. But this time it was my own stupidity It seems like I have accidentally mapped the circuit breaker of the airbrake with one of my joystick buttons, that´s why the airbrake always complete shut off and was not extending nor retracting anymore. I did not even know that DCS has implemented electric circuit breakers into the airplanes - fantastic system depth! Well but my problem is solved, please excuse for bothering I thought it was a bug...
