I'm converting my old savage ss to dual brushless. I'm considering retaining the disk break to save wear on the trans as well as heat on the motors.
Here is the Question
If I use a 3way Y splitter and remove the red wire from the 2 branches that go to my esc's and leave it in the branch that goes to the servo. will the servo operate as full on and when I hit break full off (or rather full right then full left). and yes I intend on using a receiver battery. hence leaving the red wire in the base of splitter and to servo should give servo power and no feed back power to esc's.
If I have this correct. I set up no brake on my esc's (or minimum available). hitting the trigger on my transmitter will tell the servo to max out and esc's to go. and going brake on transmitter will tell esc's to do min break/no brake and turn servo full opposite direction applying disk brake.
Yes, No, maybe so, thoughts. And to all the nitro guys out there I know I'm ruining it but I don't care its a project I'm doing for fun.
