How about fixing the wheel so that it doesn't travel on the axle? Only one shoe would apply pressure, maybe not enough to raise the tail...good compromise?

Better yet - a split washer or spring either side of the wheel. Sized right so that shoe disc can compress it as well, but would prevent wheel from binding without brake application. Experimental a/w certificate allows such experimentation...

If it's experimental, I can put a Matco hydraulic disk brake unit in for you. Very effective yet progressive braking action. It will put the glider on its nose, but only if you want.

I'd have to see the glider to work up a proper estimate. But the ballpark is probably around $1500 installed and ready to use.

Quote "Experimental a/w certificate allows such experimentation... "

Not necessarily. Read the operating limitations to see what it says about the maintenance requirements for the aircraft.
