Is ABS breaking safe for brushless systems?

Yes, the ABS braking is a misnomer. It is variable braking, but you get the idea. I just called it ABS because that's what it's called in the manual and radio menus. Futaba calls it ABS also. I'm mainly concerned with the effect on the ESC, not so much the terminology.

I will be running a MMP on 4S, so that leaves some headroom, and the vehicle is pretty light for a 1/8 with all the carbon-fiber. I guess I'll start with the default ABS settings and go from there. It has the brake/coast cycle switching every 0.1 second and I think the coast defaults to 50% brake strength, not full coasting. The ABS is only applied at 50% or higher trigger push by default. I will have the drag brake turned off on the ESC. Not sure what to put the ESC brake strength at though?
