Title: Auto brakes
Post by MikaelJ on Apr 22^nd, 2012 at 8:15pm

Hi

Dont know if I remmeber this one right? Wasnt it possible to choose
RTO on the auto brakes on previous versions?
Now when I select Auto brakes to OFF before landing thay are still coming on during rollout and I have to take the aircraft to a complete stop to get rid of the brakes.

Yeah, also remember that on 0.9. Whatever happened to it??

Yes, the Autobrake was, I believe, already set to RTO position (if you loaded e.g. a ready-to-go flight)...

But, neither the v0.9 manual2 (p. 95) nor v1.0 manual2 (p. 131) show any RTO setting...though...

Yes. I'm having the same problem too. The Autobrake will not disarm and it won't stop braking irrespective what mode it's in until the aircraft comes to a complete stop on the runway.

I wonder is this a problem with the way in which the aircraft was re-installed after the 0.9 version?

Might re-install everything again and see if that eliminates the problem.

Just uninstalled and re-installed everything (using the Markoz technique) and the Auto Brakes still will not disarm.

This is definitely a bug.

Autobrakes are ON, even when I have not moved them from the OFF position.
This means I have no choice but to wait until I reach a complete stop, before they release. :(

you can choose to disable the autobrakes by editing the acft.cfg line auto_brake and
setting value = 0 this will make them inoperative and the switch will become a dummy.

Same problem here. Is one of you xml code aware? The gauge should be in the panel folder and maybe it's just some small glitch. Currently, ATC is laughing at me, always stopping. :D

RTO is gone because there's no any RTO on the Original 737-200.
The AB issue is on the 1.1 list as someone already submitted a ticket (the ONLY way for any issue to get on the list)
