Very informative thread. It answers all my questions except one. You seem to be the man that could help me. I have a brushless motor/esc manned project where I would like to apply full throttle to the motor without the use of a receiver or any RC. Is there a switching device I can use to tap into the esc? What I'm looking for is a manual switch I could activate, ideally with a 5-6 second run time that would automatically shut off the motor until activated again. It's a crazy project but that's what I need. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
