This patent describes steering and braking system for aircraft while ground borne with remote and pilot-override control modes. In the remote mode, a single command controller operates both rudder and differential brakes of the main landing gear. The rudder is provided with a fast-response electro-hydraulic actuator for right, neutral and left positions while the brakes are provided with slow-response pulsating hydraulic actuators for right, left and unison braking. Above a predetermined air speed, the brake control is inactivated. In the pilot-override control mode, the rudder and differential brakes are independently controlled.
