Wheel brakes not fully applying?

[pimp]

How is this not being acknowledged/ addressed?

According to BigNewy, they have reported the left brake issue already, but I don't understand why this thread hasn't been tagged by the moderators yet:

Mentioned in another thread, I've tried switching the brakes to channel 2 and they seem to work consistently. Although the manual states it should normally be set to channel 1.

Yeah channel 2 deactivates the anti-skid. Brakes still function but unless careful applying expect an F-5 drift.

The left brake seems fixed. Preciate it ED.:thumbup:

I’d have a hard time believing the brakes could hold the aircraft stationary at that high of a power setting in real life, but maybe I’m wrong.

I think your tires would become square if the brakes were not ( automatically) released above a certain thrust level. And why would you? Once you're on the runway and cleared for take-off, you want to be airborne asap and it helps a lot if your brakes are released during take-off roll.

Discovered today that the brakes will hold just fine up to 90% power.

 

Thank You ED for getting this sorted. Makes formation takeoffs MUCH safer.
