April 23, 200620 yr As far as I can tell it is still there! If you have pedals you should be able to have proportional as well as differential braking capability. Off course if you only use a keyboard you are out of luck.

April 24, 200620 yr whats the difference between proportional braking and differential braking? i thought its the same thing?
April 24, 200620 yr English is not my native language, but as I understand it proportional means that the amount of braking is in relation to the force on the pedals, whereas differential means that I can push one brake more than the other.

April 24, 200620 yr I think that my braking setup is still in a default mode but if I turn the rudder with the brakes on it instantly goes differential. I believe that a pedal setup that supports toe brakes should also support proportional braking
April 24, 200620 yr It could be one of two things. For one when you apply breaks and use the rudder at the same time, you turn right/left because of the nose wheel turns and there for the airplane turns, which has nothing to do with differential breaking. The other reason as you say, would be when using rudder on the ground the airplane reacts by using differential braking. By default differential breaking is set to two buttons. F11 makes you lock the left brakes and F12 the right side - this also shows in the lower right(?) corner with red text.
April 26, 200620 yr FS2004 supports differential braking and uses accumulation logic to model variable braking force. What do you think is missing?
April 26, 200620 yr Oh...In that case. sorry guys..I just read it somewhere than it was in FS2002 but not in FS2004 anymore. Was just about to build a pair of rudder pedals with proportional/differential braking and was so dissapointed. Thanks guys. I can happy go on for planning on my project again.
