Weird Noise from Brake Application in Prepar3d v5

Featured Replies

Hey everyone.  I have been getting this random noise that happens when I apply differential or regular braking in my aircraft while on the ground.  It almost sounds like brake squealing.  I am using Saitek/Logitech Pro Rudder Pedals.  The noise doesn't always happen which is really weird.  Maybe someone else has encountered this and know what's happening?

I recorded my landing at KSLC and happened to have an instance of this "noise" occurring.  Make sure to turn up the volume to hear it.

Was not able to duplicate the issue, then again I haven't had it happen again as of this post.  I did unplug the rudder pedals and plug them back in.  Maybe enough to resolve the issue.  I'll continue monitoring.

Ok, I think I figured it out.  There is an autobrake gauge in my Airbus panel that even if I right click and close the window, the noise happens.  There was also a "squeaky brake" gauge in the gauges folder.  I removed the gauge from the panel cfg and changed the "squeaky brake" gauge to something else and all seems to be normal now.

It was some POSKY aircraft that had been converted over for Prepar3d.  The Boeing panels I have have the Autobrake/RTO built into the panel and most Airbus panels don't have it.  I use a generic Airbus panel to make things easy for me when flying and apparently someone added a Autobrake/RTO gauge and a "squeaky brake" sound gauge to go with the panel.  I went and disabled both.
