    In the manual it says to bind "Toggle arm spoilers" to use the chute and I bound that to my HOTAS but it seems to not work. I remember it working on the V1 release and then it stopped working, I can't recall if it stopped working after an MSFS update or the Vulcan update. If anyone else has this issue I'd love to know.

    @CyBeR240 I have just tested this with v0.1.1 and the control assignment is working as intended for me. The braking parachute is speed-limited to between 60 and 135 knots, so if the TOGGLE ARM SPOILERS control assignment was triggered outside of this speed range, then the switch will not animate and the braking parachute will not deploy.

    An easy way to test this will be to load a flight in the Vulcan on a runway, accelerate to 100 knots, retard the throttles, and then trigger the TOGGLE ARM SPOILERS control assignment.

    Once the braking parachute has been streamed and jettisoned, the parachute will need to be repacked before it can be reused by clicking the RESET BRAKE CHUTE button that will appear on the EFB.

    @Mark Sorry for the late reply, the speed was the issue. I'm surprised I didn't think of that before posting, thanks for your help!
