My brushed speedo gets very hot when doing that...
Yeah, thats a REALLY BAD idea. Part throttle is where you speedo is working the hardest. Neutral and Full Throttle are the easiest times in the life of a speedo (Actually BL speedos are still working hard at full throttle). Limiting the thottle end point will make the speedo run hot and possibly thermal shut down.
If you want to go slow get a milder motor... a 4800 (10.5) or a 5800 (7.5)
All of this applies to brushed and brushless motors but is even more critical for brushless.
This is not an issue with brakes as they are not on constantly like drive current. You CAN limit breaks with EPS to reduce thier power with no problems.
