Moggster Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 I've got a minor problem with my CH pedals and the toe brakes. I've currently got them set up for wheel braking left & right and they're working perfectly. The problem is...I'm disabled and as such I don't realise I'm pressing down on the right toe brake. I need to assign the left toe brake to wheel brakes (W key) and leave the right toe brake clear. Unfortunately, in the axis controls the wheel brake option is greyed out for my CH pedals and as such I can only assign seperate wheel brakes. Is there any way I can assign the wheel brakes to just my left CH pedal toe brake? Any help is greatly appreciated. 'Any new pilot is still dangerous.

If you're still alive at a thousand hours, you must have it down pretty good.' - Chickenhawk
GGM Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 You can write simple CMS script to assign additional virtual axis (or even right toe axis) to move synchronous to left toe axis. I can write one to you, if you want, when I get to home today. [sigpic][/sigpic]
Moggster Posted August 11, 2011 Author Posted August 11, 2011 Thanks GGM it'd be appreciated. Does that mean when I press the left CH toe brake, it will also simulate pressing the right toe brake...effectively pressing them both wheel brakes together at the same time?

Moggster Posted August 11, 2011 Author Posted August 11, 2011 (edited) Thanks for the help guys, it is very much appreciated! JAR, I bought the pedals 2nd hand from a friend and he advised me that I didn't need the CH Control Manager. Anyway, I've downloaded it and followed the instructions on the video and the wheel brakes now works a treat. Unfortunately it wiped out my rudder as a result but with a bit of tweaking, fist shaking, threatening the pc etc. I think I've got it up and running and working properly. Just found a problem with the rudder, after take off the HUD goes off the right side of the screen. Does this mean my rudder isn't calibrated\setup properly or does it mean I just need to setup the yaw trim properly? Or thinking about it, could be weather conditions...I'll keep testing I think.

Frostiken Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 No, the right side of the screen is because of wind. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

Moggster Posted August 11, 2011 Author Posted August 11, 2011 (edited) As suspected it was the weather that was causing my drift. Tried it without the weather and had no drift at all.

GGM Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 (edited) Moggs, Here is promised map file including script (see attachment). just load this map file into the CM software and press download button. I've also attached screenshots to help understand programming sequence. Have fun :) P.S. do not forget to switch CM Software to mapped mode before flyingsingle_pedal.zip Edited August 11, 2011 by GGM [sigpic][/sigpic]
Moggster Posted August 11, 2011 Author Posted August 11, 2011 Thanks for making this GGM, I've downloaded it and will test it out tomorrow. Looking at the screenshot, it looks different compared to JAR's video. Will be interesting to see if there's any difference between the 2. Thanks again, your input and help is very much appreciated.

Moggster Posted August 12, 2011 Author Posted August 12, 2011 GGM, it only needed the tiniest of tweaking in the options (inverting the wheel brake controls) to get it up and running fully....which took all of 2 seconds! Apart from that it's working beautifully and I can now rest my right foot on the toe brake without worrying about skidding off the right hand side of the runway. GGM\JAR thank you again for you help and input. 'Any new pilot is still dangerous. They know just enough to get themselves in trouble.

GGM Posted August 12, 2011 Posted August 12, 2011 You welcome Moggs :) I thought you had already inverted break axis, so I didn't. [sigpic][/sigpic]
