External BEC needed for RX8 high voltage/Mech brakes?

[Aceldama]

Just an update:

I haven't replaced the servo, I've tried changing the linkage up a bit but the problem still persists. I went out to a big parking lot yesterday to really wind it out and test this problem and here's what I came up with:


-Top speed run
-Heavy braking
-While braking, turn steering in either direction. The steering radius and response is drastically reduced.
-At this point you can release the brake
-Throttle has no response for a second or two and then kicks back on, almost like an LVC. Same with the steering.

I can reproduce this over and over. It feels like the LVC is kicking in, which is odd since I have mine set to 19v.

If I disconnect the brake servo this problem goes away (obviously).

I'm going to try leaving the brake servo connected but I'm going to disconnect the linkage and try again. I'll report back.
