Hi there!I'm working on an Ag-cat for FS9 and I need some help.In the real plane, the parking brake lever hooks onto the control stick to lock the flight controls - the stick and the control surfaces cannot move when the parking brake is applied. Is there a way to do this in the model?I expect an XML gauge will be required...Thanks!Marcel

You should be able to do it without any gauge using 2 copies of the stick. One with no animations and display condition for the brake being on and the second animated with a display condition of the brake being off.Lou

Thanks Lou. The problem is the ailerons and elevators will still be free to move, but maybe I can also have two copies of them. How do I create a display condition? Is it done in Gmax or somewhere else?

There are some examples of XML codes that could be adapted to your purpose here:http://www.aerodynamika.com/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.cgi?board=XMLLou

Thanks Lou, this is exactly what I needed!
