Quick question, I cant really remember how these used to drive, but should I have brakes?

I apply brakes, but there is no positive braking.. just no fwd.

Is this something with the direct drive? or should my esc motor be able to stop this car? I have set the esc .. full brake, but nothing seems effective.

If your running a Hobbywing, increase your inital brake setting to 40% or a lower brake frequency depending on which setting yours has.
I only brake once per lap on a long straight and it's only a little tap. Never any drag brake on the BMI or it will hook.
