A PDU for use in an aircraft includes a wheel configured to convey cargo through a portion of the aircraft. The PDU further includes an armature rotatably coupled to the wheel. The PDU further includes a brake pad. The PDU further includes a hold solenoid configured to compress the armature against the brake pad by a brake amount in order to apply a hold braking force to the wheel by resisting rotation of the armature. The PDU further includes a release solenoid configured to apply a force to separate the armature from the brake pad in order to allow the armature to rotate. The PDU further includes a magnet configured to compress the armature against the brake pad by a drag amount that is less than the brake amount in order to apply a drag braking force to the wheel by resisting rotation of the armature.
