I confirm, the propeller brake did not work and still does not work. And the direction of rotation of the propellers is also not corrected, they rotate in the wrong direction. Where are those who produce a model with such bugs looking?

[madeinblue]

Still same problem is SU1, on 2/3 of the mission it will ask you to set parking brake on R66…

[nierga8]

It doesn’t for me, I’ve just tried it. With the mouse and also binding an axis to the set parking brake for helicopters.

[Fheonix911]

the easy way to fix this issue is to give the rotor brake the same function as the parking brakes on skid mounted helicopters.

[nierga8]

I can’t make this work. I’ve assigned all possible brake bindings (axis, set, on, off, toggle) for rotor and parking brake (I guess this would affect skid mounted helis) with various combinations. I’d like to see someone finishing an R66 mission, because to me at the moment seems impossible.

When FS2028 is around the corner they will fix this. I shelved this hot mess, haven’t touched it for almost 2 months now. This R66 bug was the droplet that caused the bucket to overflow.

Same issue in R66. Ag spray mission. Complete land the plane, turn off and break until rotor stops but won’t let end mission. Asking to apply park break but controller binding and keyboard not responding.

[Nahkahiiri80]

Still broken. Shouldn’t be THAT hard to fix… maybe 5mins from a dev to fix? A very low hanging fruit which fixes a game breaking issue.

[WhaleVariation]

I used to be able to end R66 passenger missions, but now I can’t in SU1 beta. Same issue as OP.

Do you have the same issue if you follow the OP’s steps to reproduce it?
• yes sure do

Provide extra information to complete the original description of the issue:
• This happend before, i just bound any key to parking brakes. but now it does not work anymore

If relevant, provide additional screenshots/video: see attached
• how to make a screenshot of a parking break that doesnt exist

[Le0tter]

Yep same. I had not encountered this problem prior to latest beta updated. Now not able to finish the mission.

[REDHER0N]

v1.3.19.0 still have the issue…

[SaprPavel6630]

Yeah… fixed… sure
(SU1 latest Beta)

[SaprPavel6630]

Not fixed in yesterday Beta update. What I was hoping for…?
So they literally fixed it, reported it as fixed, then broke it again and decided to leave it in this condition?
Great job, MicroSobo, great job!

[nierga8]

I noticed a regression with the current version, I recall the contact points were fixed not long ago and now I’m getting this again… Same goes to the temperature annunciator which I remember it was always lighting up at the early days of the game but at some point the temperature was “fixed” or at least somewhat tweaked. But now it feels the heli is back to some earlier version that we had some days back.
Feels very frustrating that they are constantly messing with server-side content without any notice whatsoever. You never know what you’ll get in your next flight.
Btw I’m in the beta but I don’t know if this is beta related or not, because this seems a specific change on the R66 not related to the latest beta build, I’m sure the contact points were working alright upon the release of the latest beta.

Still broken in official launch of SU1 update, what a shame

[IceManDBB]

This is fixed as of SU2 1.4.12.0, had 2 AG missions and was able to finish them.
