I think that regen can be more of a marketing thing than anything else. What I've noticed is that the ESC will send send energy to the motor to brake it and that can be seen in most graphs, but there might not be any AMPs going back to the battery. Our little motors as you guys know are basically like an alternator and can be used to make electricity. An alternator can be modified to be a motor and I've seen some. Even in a full size electric vehicle, regen is more for marketing. Now what is different about a full size car is that they can coast much more then our R/C vehicles and that might help them put back a little energy into their pack, but not enough to give it a good charge. So regen braking is more marketing then something practical for our hobby. Brian, a good test to see is spinning a brushless motor and see what kind of reading you get from it.
