RE: Brakes
You could try www.intairco.net It is an Austrailan company (don't hold that against them 
)
You may find that with the exchange rate it will only cost you a leg!!

RE: Brakes
The Kavan electromagnetic brakes are effective and very easy to install.
A bit heavy though, (2oz. each, excl. battery) and bulky, as they need 5/8"
of axle space.

RE: Brakes
I KNOW that there used to be a kit that worked with a spring from the elevator servo to the nose wheel and pull pull cables, but I cannot find it anywhere.
Anyone know where or what this was?

I think the one you remember was a Du-Bro product, intended for the nose gear leg only.
I've had a couple, they were a royal pain to set up, and they didn't work well when they were set up properly.
They are no longer in the Du-Bro catalogue.

Bill,
All true points. I also had and as you said, worked not so well, but fit the bill of this request as Cheap. They would actually hold the wheel if you worked at setting it up.
