It will cause some huge voltage spikes (and possibly damage the ESC) if the resistor is inline during initialization...
BUT, to be safe, just don't do it.  Just say no to the inline resistor.  |
Risk of accidentally having the esc on when plugging the battery in would be too high. I was just curious. I noticed too that when I plugged my MMMv1 in for the first time ever there were huge sparks which made me jump but after that, even the next day there were none so I'm not too worried. They must discharge eventually but sparks aren't going to be a problem most of the time anyway.
Thanks for the reply too.
