Well, Artur says if the voltage coming off the motor from hard enough braking is high enough, and high enough to jump some 'diode' in the FET, then it charges the battery, I don't know if all of the energy at that point does, or if just the 'excess' does?

But I think it is worth noting, when I had my truck geared for roughly 50 mph... in my eagle tree data from that run I could see (if I was not mistaken) a blip of voltage spike on the battery (something like 0.25 volts) after a long speed straight, and after the voltage had immediately rose back up to no load... and it wasn't from applying throttle either. Maybe it was nothing, maybe it was a regenerative action? I don't know.

I was running 7s2p A123, 1512/3D (1700kv) and geared 18/51 with badlands (ballooning at that speed bad)... and this was with my 'super Quark'.
