Back wheel brakes for a Raptor

[Alkemac]

How expensive will it be to fit a set of back wheel brakes to a Raptor - at present there is only the nose wheel brake, and it requires a lot of effort to operate it, causing the trike to veer to the right, and then me having to counter by pushing the right foot peg. I dont believe this is the way it should be done!

Get hold of Coastwise. He fitted back disc brakes to his raptor when he rebuilt it. Did all the work himself and then had to fly something like 40 hours proving time to get it approved with CAA. Don't know why he couldn't have just taxi-ed for an hour.

Thats why they want the Topless wing to stay on the ground !

Check with Manfred. He used to offer rear hydraulic brakes as an option (I think R6500). You can fit them yourself, get an AP to sign them off in the logbook - shouldn't be any issues with CAA as it was a factory option. If you do it yourself with your own disks & calipers you need to do a mod form and other CAA schlepp....
