Is ABS breaking safe for brushless systems? - 02.27.2011, 01:05 AM

Now that I have an on-road vehicle I thought I might play around with the ABS braking function on my Nomadio Sensor. My question is, is it safe for brushless systems? From what I've always read motor braking produces voltage spikes that can be hard on the ESC and lipos. So then I wonder will pulsing the brakes using ABS make this worse? Or is it OK? Or am I looking at this wrong?

The ABS doesn't necessarily mean pulsing between 0% and 100% strength. I can adjust that to whatever I want, and also the length of the cycles, when the ABS triggers, etc.

Any insight is appreciated. (Is ABS just a gimmick on this scale? Or is it only helpful for mechanical brakes?)
