Brake Function?
Hello gang. I am new to electrics, just having purchased my first electric sailplane. I received a program card with my ESC. I believe I understand most of the choices, but what is the brake function? If brake is set to on or off, what happens? Also, my kit came with a folding prop. Am I correct in assuming that if I advance the throttle on my TX, the prop will unfold and spin and then if I cut the throttle off, the prop will automatically stop and fold up? Or do I have to flip a switch on the TX to get the prop to fold? Any help will be appreciated!!

RE: Brake Function?
Welcome to the best hobby ever
The folder props unfold and fold automatically
Using centrifugal force and wind in flight
(No extra channel, no flipping a switch)
The brake will stop the spin of the prop so
It won’t hit anything when it folds.
Don’t worry about landing gravity sucks
