As a real pilot using rudder peddals in-game, a single-axis for wheel braking has always bugged me about this sim series.

Most of the planes in game have this kind of "single-axis" system. There's usually a brake lever and rudders just control how the pressure is distributed between gears. If you check the D.XXI, you can see the whole valve system and how rudder pedals move the brake pressure valve.

We probably could do a the dual brake axis system, but it would need to function side by side with the old (current) system.

The existing system could probably use a bit of "tuning" as it is, perhaps it's just me but the differential brakes only seem to kick in at full rudder. It makes planes with quirky ground handling just impossible (like the He111). To have pedal actuated differential braking on the appropriate planes would be a great bonus. That's a small issue though compared to all the other stuff going on with 4.10.

Oh, yeah. Thanks Martin!

Things not mentioned before?

Its historically correct and what you would have to put up with if you flew one of these old aircraft in real life

Some of the planes in the sim had toe brakes but not many.

You can still map the brake axis in the game to one of the toe brakes for proportional brake control but need to move the rudder for differential braking.

Works fine for me (CH PRO Pedals) ... BTW the Dunlop Triple Brake Gauge in the lower right of the B534 cockpit is fully functional and is a great way of checking your brake setup. It displays exactly how much pressure is going to left and right wheels.
