Hi All,

I?m trying to find the parking brake in the Kit instructions and can?t. I have quick build fuselage, does it perhaps come in the finish kit? Or do I have to buy one from those kind guys at TS?

Thanks

That is an option $135 at vans and maybe aircraft spruce.

Vans comes with a install info and the parts you see:

other options, I have used this and very happy with it, if you are using VANS brake provided system (Grove) using Matco parking brake.

I just installed a Matco parking brake in my RV14. You can find a blog entry with part numbers and some tips and more pictures here: https://www.smashsrv-14build.com/2020/02/section-33-hours-18-some-of-places-ive.html
