Try disconnecting the passenger cylinders from the pedals and make sure they are fully extended. If the pedal pushes the slave cylinder down just a little bit it will stop the fluid from returning to the master cylinder. This will lock up the brake.

Guys,

 

I attempted to demo flight a deceased friends 320 today and found the right brake prone to total lockup.  It happened once while pushing the plane into the hangar to charge the battery.  Then it happened again a couple hours later when we went to taxi out.

 

I seem to remember some threading years ago about this.  The comment I remember was something like if both sides simultaneously brake, lockup could occur. 

 

Does anyone remember this?  What solution worked?  This plane has dual brakes and the older style master cylinders (not the gold ones).

 

I’d appreciate you taking a brake to share your thoughts….
