A concave chin ring blocks brake line-of-sight radiation and redirects convection heat away from the tire and wheel assembly.
A pre-charged local hydraulic accumulator powers the brake actuator alone, cutting fluid connections, weight, and in-flight complexity.
Radar, ADS-B, and airport map data are combined to show wingtip and nacelle obstacle height clearance during taxiing.
Pressure sensing in the brake conduit reveals servo valve wear and flow faults early, improving landing gear brake reliability.
A dedicated parking lock stops the brake motor with friction or a one-way clutch, keeping small aircraft stationary after arrival.
