Which ESCs keep brake on indefinitely ?
I was out flying my Phoenix 2000 today and the motor continued to windmill. The BRAKE function is turned on, but does not stay on, it just brakes for a few seconds. This ESC is one of Hobbyking's that came with the plane. Can anyone verify that a quality brand ESC like Castle or Electrifly has a constant always-on brake function ?
For what it's worth, this 2 m glider is a great flying plane but I had to replace the motor and re-engineer the motor mount. Oh yeah, and the brake does not work, but hey $ 80 receiver ready. I got under a growing cumulous cloud and had lift continuously even with the prop windmilling away.
