Amphibious Beaver maneuvering on land

Post by Dieter » Sun Aug 13, 2017 5:43 pm

How do I get the front wheels steered directly with the pedals not using the brakes?

You don't. The front wheels are free castoring. You can only steer with differential braking.

Thanks for info.
Hmmm, just as I feared ...
(no chance of doing any change in aircraft.cfg?)

Well…that explains why I ran off the end on a runway…down a hill…and into a Norwegian fjord…when I tried to do a turnaround to line up for takeoff. Good to know! :)
