• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

In my aircraft.cfg I have toe_brakes_scale=0.557779
What determines the number?
Ideally I'm looking for foot brake pressure that will hold against two engines at full thrust.
 
Well, you might want to adjust that number by trial and error then.
 
Max is 1.0 so right now your at 55.77% "grab power..." o_O
 
I have noticed when I apply the brakes that parking brake pressure goes to maximum, whereas pedal brake presure increases with speed.
Im wodering how I might use the braking scale as a factor for brake overheating. Has anybody attempted that?
 
Set up braking percent above 80% and above 100 knots...
Then set up a few more like 90 % and above 60 knots...

So this way your not just getting a specific factor but what ever ranges you set up!
 
Yes, that's a good way. I can set up brake position against ground speed and find a formula o increase brake temperature.
There are half a dozen tables at least for waiting time depending on brake temperature for the VC10.
