[QUOTE=Dagger Thrasher;264723]Patrick, that sounds like a great idea to me. It'd certainly help sift out the all the lower-quality packs out there too, as active performance-limiting would make it all the more obvious if a pack is struggling...as well as obviously preventing ripple deaths.
Perhaps it could be included as a check box in Castle Link? Allow people to turn off "Dynamic Power Limiting" (or whatever you'd call it) if they really want, but add a disclaimer that warns the user of possible damage to the ESC or battery if they're using cheap packs (and that Castle strongly recommend that the feature stays enabled)?

yes i highly like this idea!!!
because of the people who do KNOW about these ripple issues can turn it off to get good performance...but doing so knowing the limits of the battery.
so if i were to run 6s 5000mah zippies then i could turn off the power limiting so i dont lose performance, but i'd be gearing it down anyway as not to get any ripple current.
very good idea...yeah it's not fair at all that castle has had to replace all of these ESC's
