Braking power is not a strong point of the HW in blinky mode, I think this carries to most models, though I have seen the Orion models do have good brakes, which confuses me when I know the Orion is made by HW.

Speed Passion shares the same lack of brakes from what I have found, I often wonder how Tekin improved their brakes, many used to say the Tekin brakes were shit, then somehow they made a big improvement, I do also wonder what the Viper and that are like for brakes.
