Now, when you release your ESCs with data logging, you could use the current measurements to automatically dial in punch control and maybe even some EPA to keep current within reasonable limits.
The FAQ page says not to use the EPA because we don't want people setting up a system that draws, say, 400A at full throttle, and then using the EPA to limit current...

If currents are fine at full throttle (are within reason...) there's no reason why you couldn't use EPA to limit throttle levels.
