Default RE: Operation of Brakes on Tx

Right Slider AND down Elevator. Right slider for Parking Brake or to "Pre-Brake" on occasion.

I'm with EddieP, It seems wrong to push forward on the yoke while braking for all the reasons he mentioned. But after trying it I wound up liking it. Sometimes have to use two mixes doing exactly the same thing to get enough travel. Favorite brake valves are the Jetronic Low Loss Valve and on the last couple I used the UP-6. It's a little hassle using a servo but ... The UP-6 works like an air pressure regulator rather than a pulse valve. It uses very little air even in mid-position. Very Smooth.
