Obolel,

This system does not reverse the motor, only reverses the pitch of the prop. As such there is no time lag associated with slowing down and stopping the prop, then starting and accelerating in the reverse direction. The time lag will be too great, plus you will be putting a great strain on the motor when you hit the reverse suddenly, as it will draw high amps for a short period.
