Airbrake troubles

[blowfish]

I've been working with B9's airbrakes, moving them to the new airbrake system. For some reason, half of them simply refuse to deploy (and don't create any drag). As far as I can tell they're set up identically to the stock airbrakes.

All of the airbrakes in that image were created from the part library (not duplicating existing ones) and had no additional modifications applied to them. The defective ones still show as deployed in the part action menu, so it's not an action groups issue (and deploying them manually does nothing either).

Any thoughts as to what's going on here? I'm seriously stumped on this one.

is it an old part experiencing odd bugs? or in converting it you essentially built a new one and painted on the old texture?

I had some time,and was looking at the problem.I think the main reason for "air brakes" not to work is the model itself.Y and Z axis should be switched."Z" needs to face forward and "Y" up,also animation is redundant.The *.cfg i made,makes aero brakes half functioning with default aero model(old one).They respond to action group,but wont pitch or yaw,also the drag they make when deployed is not adjustable.

this is for small aerobrake:

dragModelType = default


MODULE
	{
		name = ModuleAeroSurface
		useInternalDragModel = False
		ctrlSurfaceRange = 70
		ctrlRangeFactor = 0.2
		actuatorSpeed = 20
		transformName = Mesh2   // Mesh1 for larger
		defaultActionGroup = Brakes
		liftingSurfaceCurve = SpeedBrake
	}

You can see from picture the difference between axis:
