MaceUK33 Everything is true Veteran Registered: 01/10/05 Posts: 12189 Loc: Darlington, UK.	Just checked mine and it's not ticked and my brakes behave correctly.

SteveUK Junior Member Registered: 02/09/12 Posts: 18 Loc: Berkshire, UK	Thanks Wrecking Crew, I just playing around getting things working in the sim (stick, rudders etc), everything seems to working fine at this time. yep I know it going to be a long journey but I'm going to do a little bit at a time and enjoy learning it. Once I get to a point where I can start it, takeoff and land then I give you a shout

- Ice Hotshot Registered: 06/23/05 Posts: 7408 Loc: Philippines / North East UK	Hmmm... I guess I just like to overkill some things. At least with slider on, I know if my gear acts up, I don't end up getting negative brakes, if that even makes any sense. _________________________ - Ice

MaceUK33 Everything is true Veteran Registered: 01/10/05 Posts: 12189 Loc: Darlington, UK.	But mine do go from zero (when I am not depressing them) to full on (when I am depressing them fully). I'll check the slider box and see if there is any difference but you cannot brake in reverse so -100 will still be zero input surely? _________________________ Intel i7 920 2.66Ghz D0 OC'd to 3.40GHz \| MSI GeForce GTX 660 Black Knight 2048MB GDDR5 \| Samsung F3 1TB \| Corsair 6GB DDR3 \| Gigabyte EX58-UD3R Intel X58 \| LG DVD±RW SATA DL RW \| Corsair TX 650W ATX2.2 PSU \| Antec 902 \| Coolermaster V8 CPU Cooler \| W7 HP 64 bit \| 27" iiyama monitor \| TM HOTAS Warthog #05225 \| TM Cougar MFDs \| Saitek Pro-flight combat pedals \| Track IR 5 Falcon BMS \| DCS A-10C \| Flaming Cliffs 3 \| RoF \| BoB 2 2.12 \| EECH 1.15 \| ArmA 3 "A nugget of purest green!"

Same for the throttles. WC
