The builder of our XS moved the toe brakes "unusables by standard feet" to hand
brakes before he sold me the plane. Using it for one year+, very easy and 
efficient.

In contrast to the experience below - we have been using the finger 
brakes for about 5 years or so - very easy to get to grips with and 
never any issues with getting to them when needed as they are right by 
the throttle.

Hi Phil


I have flown one with toe brakes and I could not get my feet on the 
brakes

and rudder at the same time.  It was all too tight for space in the

footwell.
