Plettenberg Xtra 30-10 EVO - Jeti 99 and Brake
I am curious as to others brake settings using the Jeti 99, Xtra 30-10 Evo w/ 20.5x14 APC.
Mine seems kind of high at 50% initial and 75% final, performance in air seems adequate except for landing where its a little tedious so I turn it off.
Thanks

I have:
BrakeManual Setting
Dead Time0.2 secs
Initial Brake30%
End Brake-40%
Brake Speed-0.5 secs
(with the same set-up, or with APC21X14)
This is not too bad for landings, so long as you remember to blip the throttle if things become a little slow....
I fly with this setting, but have a separate throttle curve on a switch-with the same curve, except at the bottom of the stick travel.
There, I have the lowest number above zero(where the brake operates), which will maintain the slowest possible idle.
This reduces the landing workload if needed.
