Next Generation of Brakes
 
1 Attachment(s)
These may be the next generation of wheels and brakes to come, so far have been tested on a trainer prop plane, and now a Turbine jet this weekend to come. I will be flying at Florida Jets with this brake system so stop by to check them out in person... :)

Specs:

I am using carbon fiber brake pads for durability and BVM tires for simplisity also does not need wheel collars to hold the wheels on the axles.

So far I have made them for 2"5/8, 3" and now working on 4" wheels.

Nice looking, yet simple set up. I like them. (not simple enough for me to make).;)

Wow, this would have made a great Machinery Design project when I was in school.

Damn it!

Good Luck:D

Well your looking at a wheel with a dics on it, a caliper with pads that work like your car. With theses wheels and brakes you will alway get evenly braking all the time.
