When braking, the motor is shorted, so there isn't really an amp draw, but more of a replenishment, if you will (since the current is going into the ESC and away from the motor).

This would really only be a problem with higher resistance batteries and a very heavy vehicle and the brake strength set to the highest setting. Otherwise, it should be fine :).
