Usually i’m able to steer with with differential braking in the 172S if needed, like sharper turns - this has been impossible for me in the beta since the first build, and still is with the additional tweaking in the second beta build.

But with the new ground friction lines in the flight_model.cfg either one on their own will brake you in a straight line, which is incorrect - they should turn you. THAT is the point!

Then i guess that on button program to the pedal that taxiing to the right i can also assign right brake to it and when taxiing to the left assign the leftbrake with it.

[image] Vibstronium: [image] GrimPhoenix9349: True differential braking is where a brake button is pressed and the adjustment of the rudder determines how much brake is applied to each wheel. I’m pretty sure this is wrong? I’m pretty sure this is wrong as well :upside_down_face: But …

If you bothered to read my further posts, you would see that I specifically related it to real-world aircraft. I then went on to explain the differences between Differential Braking (in the aircraft, generally a lever and the rudder bar to modulate - there is a differential in the amount of brake ap…

Well, it seems so far only 3 Asobo aircraft are using this New Ground Handling options, and probably less that 4 3PDev have tried to use it on any of their released planes, so, for the time being, its not a widespread issue or disaster.

While you are right its not a major issue, its a basic handling feature fully missing, so its quite important that this works if they want to implement new systems. Make sure the basics dont break first..

100% – agree— if new features are added, they SHOULD work correctly — it really needs a complete design re-evaluation, rather than adding random FUDGE factors to try to change it.

[image] dustNinja7871: While you are right its not a major issue, its a basic handling feature fully missing, It’s only not a major issue if one doesn’t fly the affected planes. Adding supposedly better ground handling but taking away the ability to properly maneuver the aircraft on the groun…

I can’t speak to the beta, but in a real 172 you do need to use toe brakes when making a tight turn, especially at slow speeds (or when just starting moving). The bungee system that connects the pedals to the torque tube of the nosewheel strut is only really sufficient for maintaining centerline a…
