This is the part I am still stuck on.

Maybe we should get an esc engineer representative on here to explain how there controller braking works. Maybe from CC, or S&T?

I'm sure some of these theories are correct in way, but whether engineers use them or something diff, who knows? just a thought
I highly doubt that. To get the truck moving it takes X energy. All that energy taken from the batteries does not make it to the wheels because of losses in the batteries, ESC, and motor. The same is true for taking motion and converting it to electricity; there will always be losses. So, you will never be able to take full advantage of kinetic energy.
