BL 1/8th: Need Slipper or Brakes?

[skeeler]

Hello,

I can't help but notice that most people who've converted 1/8th buggies and truggies to brushless motors have taken out the servo-activated brakes, relying instead on motor braking. I'd be grateful to hear everyone's comments on the pros and cons on including/excluding the servo brakes.

Also, most people don't seem to run slipper clutches. I'd love to hear what everyone has to say about this topic as well.

If either of these topics have already been raised, I apologize for brining them up again. Could you please point me to the appropriate threads?

Thanks, in advance, for your help.
