RE: ESM Dornier DO 335
Jim. Great video.
The question about the capacitors and why we use them. On my 262 project I learned the hard way that without them you can blow the capacitors on the ESC when you connect the batteries on long leads. In my case I had over 24 inches in leads. I blew up 2 castLE HV110 making that mistake. In sum the capacitor acts like a sponge to absorb the energy wave that travel down the lead. The longer the lead the bigger the wave. During my testing I only had a 5 amp drop in power when using them vs no capacitor. They are a must in this type of application.
