Brushless - does anyone suffer from lack of brakes.

[Colinevan]

Iv drove a few brushed cars again today and its amazing how much quiker they stop. If im coming down the straight at full pelt, the car doesnt want to stop at all.

I usually run the front one way roller and diff, so to improve things first of all, i took this out and had perm 4wd with a ball diff. This helped a little.

Iv altered the settings on the speedo (Novak GTB 5.5 to) include 50 % min drag and upped the drag brake and even altered the tx settings so that the punch is right up to max on brakes.

I drove a few other 4wd's with brushed setups and they stop immediately. The brakes do work, but for some reason only at low speeds and it deffo wouldnt lock the wheels up. at full pelt the effect is minimal.

I have heard today that brushless motors dont have proper brakes hence the prob.

Anyone else in the same boat??

Does anyone have any opinions on this. Im going to try a brushed setup in it as a comparison. but thought id get some advice as well.

Thanks
