Every driver wants braking that feels natural and steady when flat towing, not harsh or delayed. The Demco Air Force One ties directly into the air brakes of your coach so your towed car’s brakes apply at the exact same time and with the same pressure. The air connection assembly, relay valves, and coiled jumper line work together to send that air pressure instantly to the operating unit under the hood. The result is uniform braking that mirrors your RV—smooth stops, less wear on both vehicles, and confident control on every trip.
Flat towing often disables the vacuum-assist that your car normally uses, forcing other systems to push too hard on the pedal. Air Force One solves that by reactivating the vacuum-assist with air pressure from the coach. The result is braking that feels natural and balanced instead of heavy or grabby. It also helps prevent damage from excess force on the pedal or braking components.
You shouldn’t have to guess if your towed car is braking. The included wireless Coachlink monitor plugs into your RV and lights up with an audible alert whenever the brake pedal in the towed car actually moves. It connects directly to a reed switch on the actuator so you see true pedal movement, not just system activation. That accurate feedback gives instant confirmation that everything’s working right.
If your towed vehicle ever disconnects on the road, the built-in breakaway system immediately applies its brakes using the reserve air stored in the operating unit. The motorhome’s air supply seals off automatically so your coach brakes stay fully functional. This fail-safe design helps bring the towed car to a controlled stop and keeps both vehicles protected.
Once installed, the Air Force One stays tucked out of sight and is always ready. The operating unit mounts under the hood, the actuator anchors to the brake pedal, and low-profile components keep the cabin uncluttered. Just connect the coiled air hose—stretching up to 7 feet—and you’re set to tow. No setup boxes or re-positioning, just hook up and go.
Flat towing can be a much more convenient way to take your car RVing with you than using a trailer or a tow dolly. It'll save you storage space both at home and at the campsite, and it takes less time and hassle to hook up.
To flat tow your vehicle, there are 5 basic components you're going to need: a tow bar, a base plate kit, a safety cable set, tow bar wiring, and a flat tow braking system.
| For the RV | Between the RV and Towed Car | For the Towed Car |
|---|---|---|
| Hitch | Tow bar | Base plate |
| Wiring plug | Safety cables | Braking system |
| Wiring adapter cord | Wiring kit/diodes |
The custom-fit base plate installs on the frame of your toad so you can connect the car to your RV with a tow bar. Hook up safety cables between the vehicles to ensure that the toad does not separate from the motorhome if the tow bar becomes detached. Tow bar wiring syncs your vehicle's signal lights with your motorhome's tail lights, as required by law in most states. Finally, the flat tow braking system - also required in most states - activates the brakes in the toad when you hit the brakes in the RV, making for smoother, safer braking, and preventing wear on your motorhome.

Works great. Would not use anything else. Because the F250 is so heavy I did end up buying a Jeep Wrangler to tow. That said I liked the Air Force one so much I bought a second care kit fo the wrangler as well. I suspect the Blue Ox Patriot 3 would have worked for the Jeep but the Air Force One is just so easy to use I used it again. Highly recommend especially if your Class A is set up from the factory..

A year later the Air Force One breaking system is still working perfectly. We’ve put about 8000 miles on it with no problems.
Do you have a question about this Flat Tow Brake System?
