The tops of each pedal operate the left and right main landing gear brakes, independently.

Isn't there a handbrake as well? I know there's one in real planes 😁

In the game you toggle <.> to engage and disengage those.

There is a small "hand brake" in lots of small aircraft but they are rarely used as they have a tendancy to sieze and people very rarely check if it is on or not. To operate it anyway you compress the top of the rudder pedals so that the brakes are on and pull out the "hand brake" to lock the pressure in the system.
