Author Topic: option to turn off the braking limiter that keeps you from nosing over (Read 578 times)

I've mentioned that p51 landing bug a couple times myself. You can get the tailwheel to come off the ground at 2 mph by hitting the brakes. The only way to keep from breaking off the tailwheel is to press that spacebar as fast as you can.

if you try to take off in the Typhoon and hold the wheel brakes and give her full throttle you end up in a three point stance with your prop chewing concrete

Spit Driver here,
Spit 9 does exactly the same thing - any touch of the brakes above walking pace lifts the tail. I usually land fully stalled 3 point stick back and then tap the brake key very slightly and regularly to stop.

I have seen this posted before, would you please tell me what the setup is to make this happen? I have the CH Pro Pedals and would luv to use that.

JimBear, I may be wrong but I believe even with the superb CH Pro pedals (which I have too) the Toe brakes work if the switch is thrown on the base for use as gas/brake liek and automobile or as rudders if used in an aircraft. I'm not sure but we can't have both actions. Although I REALLY wish we could!
If we can then I have something set up wrong and would love to fix my setup somehow.

Westy, I have the same pedals, no way to control them in both modes at the same time.

The pro peds being 3 axis, could you map each of the toe brake axis to the differential brake keys, C and V I believe?
