Default RE: airbrakes

You can raise both ailerons up (assuming you have separate servos in separate channels). This will cut your lift and act as airbrake. Don't use too much until you are sure it won't cut too much your aileron effectiveness.
How well its works depend on factors like how much area the ailerons had..

Or you can bring them down as a flap..
