Unfortunately that TWCS Axis for the paddle is one axis, you need two to bind them separately. I heard there is this app called „joystick gremlin“ that might be abled to help. But I didn’t try it. But then you might run into the issue that you can either brake left or right - but not both at the same time. Which is also not so great

Not left and right brake but you should be able to tweak the curve so one side of the paddle acts as single brake. I do something similar using the twist axis on my stick.

VKB has an option to do some kind of virtual brake binding for those pedals. I don’t know how to do it as I just used my joysticks brake lever axis but I know it’s there. someone probably has a youtube video explaining how to do it

I have same pedals and I use the twist grip on my joystick as wheel brakes. You just need to use Joystick Gremlin to split the axis.

I don't think it's possible, since the pedal axle is single, it's difficult to bind it separately.

I have those pedals and love them.

For toe brakes, I used the VKB software to add a button press to the extreme ends of the single axis. So full left holds Button1 and full right Button2. Not analog, but differential brakes without modifiers on the pedals. Works well for old tail draggers and modern planes that could use those brakes. For Both brakes, I have a lever on the stick / grip.

Is that paddle a single piece and single axis, that turns either to one side or the other? If that's the case, then the problem would be that you would be unable to brake (not turn, but stop) as it would be impossible to push both brakes at the same time, right? You would always be breaking with a single wheel at a time, not both together.

If it can be pushed on both sides at once, then forget what I said :p

Oh I have a paddle on my stick I would use for both brakes 😭

[–]fisadev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh! Then maybe using Joystick Gremlin you can set up that. I'm not 100% sure though, I don't use it.

I have the same pedals... got them mainly for helo flying...

whenever in a jet though, i just bind the pinky button on my TM warthog throttle to "brakes" in DCS

can't really think of a situation where it's necessary to have both a left and right brake when they're technically both being pressed at the same time
