Speedbrake binding for non-cougar throttles
-
Hi all, I recently tried a new binding for my x55 rocker switch (would work just as well on a 4-way hat too) that I thought I’d share. Basically, instead of just having AFBrakesOut and AFBrakesIn bound to each position, I have AFBrakesOut bound as normal, but to retract the brakes I use AFBrakesToggle (normally bound to ‘B’ key) instead. What this gives is a single press to retract the brakes all the way in, rather than having to hold the button down for 6 seconds. So long as the brakes are extended even a bit, they will retract when you hit the ‘Toggle’ bind.
Just a small QOL improvement but I thought I’d share it.

Hey, thanks, that’s great. I was looking for this!

Toggle do not allows intermediate position for partial extension as IRL.

This is true but you can get intermediate position on the opening cycle. In any case, I only have the brakes full open or closed, and you can bind the intended behaviour on the pinky shift layer if you like. Or you can bind the toggle behaviour to a shifted layer. Now ppl have 4 options for binding their brakes!
