Wheel Braking System

Wheel Braking System

The Wheel Braking System automates the braking process so vital upon landing. Proportional braking is achieved by pulsing the brakes, and has an effect similar to anti lock braking. The On time is preset with the rotary switch, while the Off time is proportional with the input signal. Mixing the brake channel from the elevator channel gives control of the brakes on down elevator.

The Wheel Braking System plugs into the receiver and directly drives the electrically operated air valve supplied.
