Landing Brakes on Pad?

Can't find any reference to 'Brakes' in the Controller layout diagram (in the booklet - Xbox Vesrion).

How are they applied and is there a screen message?

dont you just hold the throttle stick back when you land?thats what i always do,or you could use the guns recoil to slow you down

yeah just pull the right stick down, when you're on the ground that does your wheel brakes

Thanks guys but it's the game pad controller I am interested in.

Intsruction booklet is pretty poor considering it doesn't even mention that you can 'pan' by pressing the right controller or, as I discovered today, flaps can be set to Raised, Combat, Landing and...... Take off! Not that setting to 'Takeoff' matters much........managed ok so far by just raising them.

I am looking at the standard game controller interface to establish the braking function in terms of the hardware/software. With no patch fix for the stick, I am investigating other hardware solutions and see if i can establish the control data.

When you game pad controller do you mean a standard pad or do you mean like a street fighter controller. Whatever the controller the brake 'should' be whatever is trottle down. If not it's bugged like the flight stick.
