There are several brake systems out there, but none of them are simple. That's the reason why you don't really read much about them. You won't see them in wide use until you get up to large scale aircraft or jets. For most of the rest of use we get along with out them and learn to stop the plane in other ways.


Two planes on one channel = two smoking piles of balsa splinters!! No, you can't fly them together. This is why frequency control is such a big deal at all flying fields. If your plane is in the air and somebody on the same channel turns on you are going to lose control of your plane.
