Thruster87 Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 The drum brake system [new] I have on my aircraft is really really really hopless and no matter what I try it won't run freely and then brake as well.It seems to be one or the other. Hydraulic brake systems now come in such variety [from push bike to ATV to motor bike ], I'm sure one will come to the party. Just wanted to know if anyone has looked at or used any of these newer lighter units and with what sucess.Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speddo Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 These are some of the neatest discs I've seen (if I've successfully attached the photo, that is?!) - based on mountain bikes - I'm sure you could get hydraulic versions of them. (from the FalconEast website "aerofalcon.com"). Cheers. [ATTACH]2335[/ATTACH] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregrobertson Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 John Washbrook at Freebird aviation Australaisa imports a great little hydraulic disc brake kit (Black Max BX 1000) He had a stand at Narromine. They are designed as replacement brakes for machines such as the thruster. [email protected] Regards Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
