Why automatic propellerbrake doesn’t work in DG Flugzeugbau Aircrafts?
- M
  Mark SmithAug 17, 2025
  If the automatic propeller brake of your DG Flugzeugbau Aircrafts isn't working, it could be due to a worn brake pad causing the brake motor lever to reach its stop. In this case, adjust the brake cable or install a new brake pad, following the instructions in maintenance manual section 1.11.9. Alternatively, the brake motor itself might be defective, along with the proximity switch, DEI-NT, control unit, or wiring.
