A really dopey question - wheel brake control release in cockpit (not Keyboard W)

[lesthegrngo]

I have been looking for this for a while, more out of curiosity that anything else, as I can assign it to a Bodnar controlled switch but where exactly in the cockpit is the 'release wheel brakes' switch? Sometimes when I go to quick start - takeoff, the wheel brakes are on, and I have to tap the W key to release it, That means, in theory at least, that there should be a button or switch in the cockpit that performs the same function

I want as much as possible to not have to use the keyboard, if nothing else due to the inconvenience, so I will probably invent a switch (maybe by the Emergency Hand Brake lever) just to have it assigned, but would like to know if there is a real one somewhere

Cheers

Tha A-10 hasn't a separate parking brake. To release the brakes in the simulator (W key) you may push both pedals. To park the aircraft without chocks mostly the emergency brake is used.

ok, thanks- I thought I tried doing that, but maybe I didn't press them hard enough

Have you tried to invert the axis?

I'll double check - I upgraded to the MFG Crosswinds and made pendulum pedals for them, maybe my setup isn't right

Did you recalibrate with the new pedals?

[lesthegrngo]

only the rudder axis, not the brakes

Confirmed, calibration issues

Thanks
