Maxthrust Posted December 31, 2021 Posted December 31, 2021 Can we have the nose wheel steering enable/disable and L/R brake axis assignments in 2022? 3 1
Rissala Posted January 4, 2022 Posted January 4, 2022 +1 NWS is really important since the SU-25 is relatively unstable on takeoff. With crosswind it is very difficult to take off. 3
Supernova-III Posted December 30, 2024 Posted December 30, 2024 Similarly to Su-27, it must have wheel brakes on the rudder pedals. 4
Maxthrust Posted January 3 Author Posted January 3 How is this labeled as solution? More importantly, when will ED address this? FC4? 2
PawlaczGMD Posted January 3 Posted January 3 The OP is wrong in that the SU-25 should not have TWO brake axes. Like most(all?) Russian jets, it doesn't have toe brakes, and instead uses differential braking with a single brake axis (the lever on the stick, not on the rudder pedals). But the OP is right in that the SU-25 should have this axis. Currently, it is only an on/off button. It should indeed work like the Su-27. 1

This has been discussed numerous times; SU-25 brakes are activated by the pedals. Do not make up stuff. Edited January 4 by Maxthrust 2

AeriaGloria Posted January 6 Posted January 6 Yea, during Su-27 development, test pilots said that having the brakes on the pedals was nice. So they ported it to Su-25 1 Black Shark Den Squadron Member: We are open to new recruits, click here to check us out or apply to join! https://blacksharkden.com

AeriaGloria Posted January 6 Posted January 6 “The ADI is weird and not roll stabilized, but moves as you roll the aircraft. Along with the unconventional HUD, the roll of the silhouette compared to the earth of horizon was double the actual roll! I had to look at it imagining that I was flying behind the plane and radio controlling it” - paraphrase of First US pilot to fly the MiG-29 with Valery Menitsky 2 Black Shark Den Squadron Member: We are open to new recruits, click here to check us out or apply to join! https://blacksharkden.com

Supernova-III Posted February 1 Posted February 1 On 1/6/2025 at 2:58 PM, Cab said: Was this a post-production modification, then? Did the Su-25 originally have a brake lever on the stick? Brakes on pedals is typical solution for Sukhoi planes. And this solution was in use a waaaaay before su-27. Su-17 had brakes on pedals. So I don't think the statement about brakes on Su-27 is true. On su-25, brakes were always on pedals. 1
