Did I say the motor is only takes energy? that's true, most of it, esc I would assume takes some, obviously a little from internal resistance (not much), and switching, and losses from whatever else goes on with the FET, like Artur said there is a voltage drop in FET?

I have said it before that braking IS hard on a ESC, but when you look at total energy , the esc probably dissipates small percentage of energy.

I can see regenerative braking, but let the question be asked whether the efficiency when motor is acting like generator is great enough to produce a voltage high enough to charge batts. It might depend of motor? Do you think?



"Yeah, if the motor stops dead immediately, but that's not the case. since you are trying to slow down the vehicle and not locking its tires.

Go figure boy..

Use the motor as a generator to slow down the vehicle, that's the principle of braking."

-What are you saying?
