I agree; it is a nice feature, provided the motor isn't loaded way too much or locks for some reason. Then, the ESC simply tries to kill itself to get the motor moving. For this reason alone I like the Quark better simply for better protection during those what-if times. Although, I would have thought the MM would have some type of current limiting feature, but maybe it is set to kick in too late...

I'm curious to see if this action will change if/when Castle releases a firmware revision for different motors.
