I think you're right about the process. I think what I was trying to say is; will the fixed timing in a sensored setup have any adverse effects on the motor braking response? Do the CC ESCs vary the
brake timing with sensorless motors, as they do while powering them? Do they work the same way while running a sensored motor?
I am asking because I want to try to add sensors to a CC outrunner and use a MM Pro.
EDIT: I found the ROAR sensor pinout in case anyone was curious...
The pinout for the motor sensor wire is as follows (as per ROAR 8.8.1.3 specs):
Pin #1- ground potential
Pin #2- phase C
Pin #3- phase B
Pin #4- phase A
Pin #5- temp control, 10 k Thermistor referenced to ground potential
Pin #6- + 5.0 volts =/- 10%
I was wondering why the harness had 6 wires in it... Pin #5 can be omitted.
