Yeah, I agree with you Brian, there is a switching to the braking obviously. You can hear it if you apply the brakes and push the truck forward, it sounds like a metallicy sound switching. I've tried the shorting the motor leads too, there is alot of resistance there for sure, as all it is basically a generator with a short circuit.

Maybe we can all understand the regenerative part if we know how particularly the FET's in these controllers work. As FET's have different features. :030:
