February 1Feb 1 I used the same axis settings as 2020 and my braking is slightly delayed. Whereby in 2020 is nicely responses. In the 777 Thanks Mike
February 1Feb 1 Not sure about the 777 explicitely but some airliners need to build up hydraulic pressure to apply breaks, thus a slight delay can be possible. If that delay is not more than say 10 sec. Also could be this is better modeled either in 2024 vs 2020 or the specific 2024 model was just improved vs 2020 before. Just an idea and other may be more knowledgable Phil Leaven i5 10600KF, 32 GB 3200 RAM, ASUS 4070 12GB EVO, Asus ROG Z490-H, 2 WD Black NVME for each Win11 (500GB) and MSFS (1TB), Rolling Cache 16GB, Photogrammetry always OFF, Live Weather and Live Traffic always ON, Res 2560x1440 on 27"

February 1Feb 1 I had the same issue with all planes when I started using 2024. My issue ended up being particular to the ancient CH Pro pedals I was using. I had to use the old CH configuration tool to set the toe brake axis to non-centering and making sure the correct axis was assigned in MSFS with no conflicting assignments. Chris

Thanks Mike Mike, a good calibration in Windows settings, followed by MSFS, and ensuring there is no bidding conflict, will do it. There is no delay when applying the brakes, regardless of whether using cables, air, or hydraulics. 747 Captain for the last 39 years, and still learning.

Just an idea and other may be more knowledgable Never really seen that, hydraulic pressure in the brake accumulator should always be there. That said, carbon brakes need a second or two of application before they bite, since they need to heat up. The brakes on the ATR42 and 72 feel very different since they’re steel and carbon.

Regarding this subject, on the B747, B777, B787, and A380, we use carbon brakes, and there is no delay whatsoever. One or two-second delay before you modulate them when you really need them can make a significant difference. Never heard of that one, but I might be wrong. Additionally, carbon brakes heat up quickly and perform better the hotter they get, while steel brakes can suffer from brake fade and lose effectiveness as they overheat. Not familiar with the ATR (by the way, very nice aircraft) at all, but I did not notice any difference at brake application when we used carbon or steel in any aircraft; the only difference was temperature-related between the two. 100%, there should be a brake accumulator to maintain a minimum parking brake pressure, and then you can pressurize the system from multiple sources.

February 1Feb 1 Hello Mike ... Are you using rudder pedal style brakes or a button assigned to the brakes? Sheldon "Bill" Williams

I use a button for the brakes and coming from FSX the delay, of MSFS24, was driving me crazy! I use a lua script, run by FSUIPC, and it has made the issue 90% better. Sheldon "Bill" Williams

February 2Feb 2 I've had no end of trouble with the brakes in the Boeing birds of late with 2024. Specifically the parking brake which I apply and then I am unable to release. I've tried everything - all kinds of combos of assigning within MS2024, FSUIPC, with and without pedals to no avail. The only thing that seems to work is assigning a key to 'RELEASE PARKING BRAKE' within the sim, not something I've ever had to do before. This is only in the PMDG birds and the CSS 737, no issue in Airbus or the iFly 73M.
February 2Feb 2 I used Saitek rudders, and now I'm using Honeycomb Charlie rudder. I have never had any brakes delay with any aircraft. I'm pretty sure it hardware issue or double assignment Life time flight sim enthusiast, current airplane owner 172P (past C182F).

I have tried everything from double bindings to calibration. And yet same response it is delayed Any other options i can try ? In msfs 2020 its perfectly fine. Just 2024. Thanks Mike
