Would it be possible to implement something like this:
- If axes for "left brake" and "right brake" are configured AND
- Current plane doesn't support separate brakes
=> then the actuation of either left or right brake would lead to the actuation of the brake?

I hope it's clear what I mean
Its an idea but those aircraft did have different systems. I would prefer to have the option to just use '109' type braking. It may not be realistic in the sense that a lever doesn't have to be pulled but the effect would be the same as the RL aircraft.

For those that don't know, the Spit and Hurricane had a bicycle-type brake lever on the control column which gradually increased the brake pessure but it could be distributed to the different wheels by the rudder pedals. I have that brake 'lever' assigned to the slider axis on my X52 throttle which I use with the rudders as in the aircraft. Its not great and if you don't have a slider/rotary you have to use a key for 'Full Brakes' and dab it on and off to avoid nosing over. I may try to get the rocker rudder in my old X45 working again and use that as the lever.
