CH Pedals and FS 2004

Featured Replies

I currently use CH padals and yoke (USB) with FS 2004. I have noticed that if the CH pedals are connected, it renders the (.) period key on the keyboard useless. It will no longer control the brakes.While this is fine with most situations, it poses a small problem with some of the California Classics planes as their prop reverse function is simulated by a file that activates the brakes to a small degree. As a result of the pedals controlling the brakes, the braking action of the prop reverse does not work unless the pedals are diconnected.Does anyone know if this is a known issue with the CH pedals or is my unit malfunctioning.?I called CH products directly and they were not aware of any problem. They thought either function should work but were not sure if MS had made any changes.Thanks for any assistance with this issueRoger Hollands

I'm not really sure, but in all probability, the "." key isn't actually disabled. It's just that you're getting a minor change in the values coming from the pedals and FS generally responds to the last input it had for any particular function. The "." may very well be seen but then an input value change from either toe-brake would cancel it.If that's the case, increasing the deazone setting in FS might help. With the deadzone wider, the pedals wouldn't be seen as changing value nearly so readily and it might get stable enough to allow the "." to work. For the toe brakes, wider deadzone in FS seems to be with the deadzone slider further to the left.Barring that, about the only thing I can think of would be to set up a map in the Control Manager. If the revers thrust was controlled by a yoke button or axis and not the keyboard, you could use the CMS scripting facility to force a value into both brake axes simultaneously, basically apply the braking to simulate reverse thrust yourself.- BobThe StickWorkshttp://www.stickworks.com
