I’m new to jets only 5 or so years flying them.....but I never understood using the elevator for brakes, I’m guessing it come for the DF times when radio didn’t have the slider or the programming to enable it....(don’t know never tried on my older radio)

it doesn’t make sense, because when you hit the brake the planes should have stop flying, so taking your hand off the stick doesn’t really matter....unless your not on mode 2........rudder/steering is the only thing needed.....and throttle to taxi back....
