    SafeTaxi-MSFS2020 - Image 1

    Description

    SafeTaxi is a speed limiter for ground taxi. Choose your desired speed, release your parking brakes and click activate. SafeTaxi will automatically adjust your throttles and brakes to keep the speed limit. You won't need to check your ground speed again while taxiing.

    What is the point of using this addon?
    This addon is meant for people who own controllers with limited throttle axis ranges or for keyboard users which prevents them from accurately controlling the aircraft speed while taxiing.

    Does it work for all aircrafts?
    It works for most of the vanilla aircrafts and FBW A320X. I haven't tested this addon with other products apart of the mentioned above, but if you wish any specific aircraft to be supported feel free to drop a request.

    Will you support more aircrafts and profiles on the upcoming releases?
    If this add-on grows on the community and i can find some more spare time to work on it, it's absolute YES!

    How do i install and run SafeTaxi-MSFS2020
    1. Copy all content from the extracted Community folder into your MSFS2020 Community folder.

    2. SafeTaxi folder can be extracted wherever you want.

    3. Run MSFS2020.

    4. Make sure that your throttle and brake controller sensitivity are set to linear, otherwise SafeTaxi will not work as expected.

    5. Launch the app by running "safetaxy.exe".

    How to use it:
    1. Select the aircraft profile. (If there is no profile for that specific aircraft, take a chance with the Default Profile).

    2. Select your speed limit by using the "-5KTS" and "+5KTS" buttons.

    3. Once ready to taxi, realease your parking brakes and click the activate button.
    Activate button will turn green and the aircraft will start accelerating and braking automatically to maintain the selected speed.

    4. When you are done with your taxi, push the activate button again and the button will turn red.
    NOTE: You can also deactivate SafeTaxi adding brake input from your controller.

    Fantastic addon! Makes taxi in/out so much easier. Use it on all flights (mostly FSS E-jet and FBW A320) and absolutly love it! Great job Sir.

    I LOVE this. I've hated constantly adjusting my taxi speed - and to be honest, I don't really care if that's what you have to do IRL. : ) Thanks so much!

    BTW I have the SF50 Vision Jet and it works fine for me.

    what does linear mean? Sort of 1:1. I go into control settings then to Sensitivity and for my control throttle slider, set it to 1:1, so there is kind of a 45 degree line?
    As for the brakes, how do you adjust linear there?
    When I set the profile to say A320 fbw, I notice it changes colour when I click the activate button. Which colour activates? I;m colour blind red/green, so have to guess which colour I have.
    The modern airliner soon picks up taxi speed, and this little app sounds great,,,if I can learn how to set it up in MSFS

    Works with JustFlight BAe 146. Comes in very handy.

    Very difficult and frustrating to properly taxi the Black Square Analog Caravan so I am thankful for this mod. I used the Asobo KingAir 350i profile, since they're both turboprops. Had to manually edit this file above the default 20% thrust to get the plane to move at all. When SafeTaxi is set to 5KTS., the plane moves at 3 KTS.. When set to 10 KTS., the plane moves at 8 KTS.. When set to 15 KTS., the plane moves at 13 KTS., and so on. Sometimes the plane will stop on its own at the 5 KTS. setting, maybe due to an upslope in the taxiway or runway, I don't know.

    Side note tangentially related to SafeTaxi: I noticed that the Black Square Analog Caravan's torque meter doesn't move and the plane doesn't move either until the throttle is at or above 25%, though I see immediate action in the I.T.T and Ng meters as soon as I push the throttle above idle. High idle or low idle condition lever setting makes no difference, the plane doesn't move until I give it 25% throttle minimally. I need to learn about Beta Range obviously, this is all new to me.
