Not same size or same current but it gives an idea of the efficiency gain that the AFW can bring to the table at partial throttle (see delta T values for both ESC after the tests).

While true, there are also instances when active freewheeling reduces efficiency significantly.

Cryodrive is more sophisticated than simple AFW, and results in efficiency gains across the board.

OK, it seems to be a very cool feature (in every senses of th word) ! What do you mean "instances when active freewheeling reduces efficiency significantly" ? Do you know if the hardware in the MMX can be compatible with this new software feature ? Tia.

I mean that in some circumstances, AFW reduces the system efficiency vrs passive freewheeling.


I don't know offhand if the MMX will support Cryodrive. Sorry, I'm stuck in Shanghai at the airport waiting for a six hour delay flight.
