Hand brake IS ANALOG !!!

[Olegonic]

Hi, I have seen a couple of threads about hand brake modifications somewhere on "Racing hardware" forum but I think my short review of what I found will be MORE interesting here...
So, first of all, people want to upgrade thier G25-27 with some kind of independent handle with external switch connected to the button on a shifter base. THIS E-Brake will work like "ON"/"OFF" only.
I have independent hand brake connected to a controller under my stand by means of a simple flexible springs so it cant damage the stick wich it connected with.
1.This controller used to be a handbrake is assined as No.1 in PS3
2.Handbrake handle is connected to the left stick which is assined as handbrake in GT5. When it moves backwards.
3.After some tests I can CONFIDENTLY CONFIRM that this stick works NOT like ON/OFF, I sligthly move my handle - car slows down without wheels lock, and further, continuing moving handle to the end/stop position of a stick car's rear wheels lock.
So, summary, I find it more REAL to use an additional controller instead of electric switch wired in to the shifter base electric board.
On demand, I can provide a photos of my hand brake, so you can see that it has a back limiter as well and rubber dumper which gives you a feeling of a reallike one.
Peace!

I use analog trigger for E-Brake since day 1, sometimes it feels progressive, sometimes not.

I never even thought of the ingame e-break as being that realistic, im gonna mess with it now.

lol OP your post sounds like a mad scientist.

I have been telling people about that too except on the controller you can set it for a joystick or other pressure sensitive button (mine is down on the right joystick) also FYI the R/A controller is available on the controller too ( like the GT driving force's red dial)

Some pictures of my hand made stand and HANDBRAKE. Controller is under the stand, connected by mean of springs with lever. I will take more pictures in better quality later.

Are you sure it is analog ? A lot of people are saying it is digital

If it ends in .jpg, then you surround the link like:

In this case, you end up with this:

Quite the setup you've got there! Didn't think you'd need something so intricate

I have tested and can confirm that the handbrake in gt5 is indeed analog

 

[HE1RO]

I'm surprised the awesomeness of your setup doesn't blast you back because you have an office chair. Haha

From my testing you don't really get a modulation it is analog but he only gets you levels of breaking one is even if you call slightly on the handbrake you'll get our breaking any support to the fullest extent you get what so it's not like people only be etiolated bit breaking for what you get what I'm calling you still get the maximum breaking at the quantity in you get what

I'm using iPhone voice recognition by the way so are some of the words may not be legible vegetable after what I wanted to say was that in reality and practice EE great e.g. T5 the analog version section offerors realistic because it's recorded a good of it still gives you a lot more great

 

[acwebpage]

Basically ebrake not realistic in gt. you can only do one level of braking or lock. And that level of braking is much stronger than a little pull of th ebrake. You are better off having it as a digital

 

[acwebpage]

As in the moment you apply the analog break the car will slow down heaps whereas Irl if you pull the h brake a little or even halfway it had little impact on slowing car down. You got to pull it almost all the way for it to have any real stoppage. I have tried it on my car I have to fully pull it for the car to stop

 

[acwebpage]

Do in a sense Irl it actually feels more like on off but gt makes it feel like hard brake then lock

agreed stav & still be wrong & make no sense every cars e-brake is different & u can change how ur e-brake mod feels so if done right it can feel like a e-brake would irl.
