Brakes
| After looking at this system at a friends, I decided on the Tracy Obrien brakes. I installed the brake handle on the control stick, and this leaves my left hand free during landing. Probably just my technique, but I had a hard time getting the system bled. Made a big mess in the shop with transmission fluid spilled everywhere. I really like the simplicity of the instal- lation. I didn't like the thought of running |

all the cables and trying to get it all adjusted as per plans, but once again in hide sight, It might have been a simpler way to go. Also the Tony Spicer video removed any doubts about the performance of mechanical brakes. As always, everytime I strayed from the plans it seem to cost me time and money. I think I'll be happy with this brake system, it looks good and seems to perform very well also. |
