Hi all,
I have a set of Electromagnetic wheel brakes on the main gear of my F4 Phantom model.
Currently, I have them operating via LS on my X9D but they are either ON or OFF.
Is there a way to make them proportional? I was thinking some sort of curve?
Thanks in advance
Craig

Re: Electromagnetic wheel brakes - proportional control
You need to link to your brake system to see how it works. Those I've seen cannot be controlled proportionally, and if you've already got it on a proportional contol but it works as on/off only it's most likely the case of yours.

Thanks for the help.
I kinda thought that would be the case.

Re: Electromagnetic wheel brakes - proportional control
I have been there. As Kilrah says, the electromagnetic brakes are not quite proportional, however, I was able to achieve some proportionality using one of the sliders in the Taranis. Another trick that you can try, is to use a lot of delay in the mixer Slow parameter. I only tried the slider, and later, once I learnt to make a shallow landing I eliminated them. On EDF planes and heavy planes we just add a 3mm long fuel tube to the main wheels shaft to produce some friction y help braking. Not high tech, but still works just fine.
