| New ESC question
Hi guys, I purchased this ESC to upgrade mine but it did not come with instructions. Does anyone know what the switch in the ESC does? Here Is a link of it. Thanks RC ESC 20A Brush Motor Speed Controller w/ Brake for RC Car Boat Tank DS | eBay |

IIRC the switch is for a brake. What's this going in?

I use one in a Trail Trekker and it does fine with the worm gear axles.

I have a few of those without the switch, but yes that extra switch is to turn the reverse delay on and off. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk |

Sorry for the thread necro, but I'm interested in this ESC for a small build. Does that switch on the board turn the drag brake on and off, or does it switch the reverse delay? This thread has conflicting information. |

I would assume the modes are like this forward/brake/reverse forward/neutral/brake, double tap brake for reverse |

Just to mention, IDK if they have a "drag brake" like whats seen in 1/10, alot of these micro crawlers have worm drive or gear head motors... so they have a mechanical drag brake already these are worth a look to, they are not switchable tho Crawler https://www.ebay.com/itm/10A-Brushed...QAAOSwfC9XPEdE car/buggy/truck https://www.ebay.com/itm/Two-Way-10A...IAAOSwcvdXPEZf |
