intelfx Posted January 10, 2022 Report Posted January 10, 2022 Currently, the CL650 has just one command to operate the parking brake (CL650/pedestal/park_brake). It would be very helpful for HOTAS owners if there could be separate commands to set and release the parking brakes, which then could be bound to separate positions of a hardware parking brake lever.

Pils Posted January 10, 2022 Report Posted January 10, 2022 Good request in general. However, does your hardware hold a command when in position? Because “hold brakes max” works fine for me. Quote

Yes, in fact I can reconfigure the hardware to emit "level-triggered" events but I'd prefer not to do that because it would mean I'll have to reflash the HOTAS every time I'm going to fly a different airplane or play a different game.

troponaut Posted January 11, 2022 Report Posted January 11, 2022 That's something I asked for in Discord as well. I use the white Flap handle of the Bravo as Parking Brake. As a workaround I had to use the configurator and create a conditional switch (ie when pushing the lever down, if parking break is already set do nothing, otherwise toggle parking break etc.) it would be much cleaner if we could have 2 different commands for parking break set and parking brake release.

Pils Posted January 12, 2022 Report Posted January 12, 2022 (edited) After the current work in progress is done I’ll ask the developer, no promises however. Edited January 12, 2022 by Pils Quote
Pils Posted January 12, 2022 Report Posted January 12, 2022 In the meantime a Lua script can be used to set the dataref. Quote
