Electric Brakes X10 Express

[Corvous]

Do anyone know how to program electric brakes. I’ve tried all I know and I cannot apply pressure to the brakes. They just reach a point when I use down elevator and lock up. Not what I need. Does anyone have any links to videos please attach

Thank you

The brakes appear to have two positions on or off, you will need to assign them to a switch on your TX. See this link for more details.

Thanks but I need to understand how program the transmitter. I’ve got them installed

Are you running Opentx or Ethos on your X10S. Simply put you just add mix and allowcate the brakes to a switch. So these brakes are either on or off.

I’ve done that but the breaks just hit a point and lock. I need to add pressure to the brakes to slow it down. Not lock the wheels

I checked the JP Hobby web site. These brakes have only two positions, On or Off. There maybe a mechcanical way to adjust each wheel brake so they don't lock up but it appears not to be a radio option.

I just downloaded the manual for these electrical magnetic brakes. It states you can change the breaking force by setting the percentage on the transmitter to control the brake force. It’s also states you can set up the brakes as a mix with the down elevator. I just need to figure this out.

oh, that elevator idea sounds pretty nice. Basically the more to push down, the more brake you get.

Very simple to test, just add a channel to your elevator mix, whatever channel you have the brakes plugged into.
