Postby kolo » Sat Mar 26, 2011 5:55 am

When ever i am landing my Cessna 185DGL i apply the brakes and nothing happens and its getting very frustrating.The aircraft is the Wild alaska cessna.Any help would be appreciated. also once brakes are applied it comes up on the screen so i know they are working but i dont slow down.

Cheers

Installed this plane (Flying-Wild-Alaska-Cessna-185.zip- update of the Cessna 185 by JR Lucariny for FSX, by Mark Rooks) and the brakes do work but are weak.

Find this section in the aircraft.cfg file:

[brakes]
toe_brakes_scale=0.48420

At that time [1909] the chief engineer was almost always the chief test pilot as well. That had the fortunate result of eliminating poor engineering early in aviation.

also you may try to use more of your fuel before landing cause a heavier plane will be more difficult to stop especially with faulty brakes. if doing a short tour , you might consider taking off with less fuel, like 50% or even less.
