Could I suggest disabling the toe brakes while the gear is up. :)

That would be perfect - but there's no way of knowing when the gears are up or not :( Can make assumptions, but then the user would have to tell the program if we are starting in the air (gear already up) or on the ground.
I'm deaing with some people who downloaded and tried my program, launching the wrong files without checking any instructions, and then their computer acts strange and they blame me. Moreover, they also suggest that I'm trying to install malware/viruses/etc and that they are on to me. Ooookay there...
EDIT: Either way, I'm going to try and work out something for the toe pedal issues if anyone seems to have 'stutter' in their real world feet :P and having an angle that doesn't make the heels the pressure point. Maybe merge it with the tail-wheel lock function, because as far as I know, the tail wheel is ALWAYS unlocked even when starting in the air. But then one would pretty much need a reset button for this as well.
Maybe something else. I don't know what. I could scan the throttle axis and make it only manipulate the rudder if the throttles are at a certain setting, but I don't think that would work well either due to people using throttles in all kinds of ways when taking off, landing, and turning on the runway.
I could put in a 'deadzone' for the wheel brakes users can set up themselves maybe. That way they have to press them a bit more when using them, but less chance of inadvertent activation otherwise. I've personally never managed to accidentally press the toe brakes far enough (they have a noticable deadzone of travel before engaging to begin with).
