With zero timing (blinky) racing gaining popularity, braking performance is going to become a key performance factor.
I have been advised to try using 4 caps instead of the 2 that are on my esc to see if that also helps to increase the brakes.
I'm more than happy with the performance of my hobbywing esc's, along with the level of support I received when I had an issue with one of them, which was resolved at a level that was highly satisfactory.
I am sure that Angelo & HW are aware of the "soft" braking withing the "blinky" software and hopefully working towards a resolution.
Perhaps a update on the progress could be given to let us know that HW is working towards a updated version of the no timing software?
