Some brands of ESC's  have working brakes and some do not . 
Does anyone have any experience with these? 
I plan on buillding a 4500KV flexi .

your brakes come from your controller - a 4500kv sounds pretty safe.

I've used SBM, DoSlot and NSR ecomms with various motors.  They all had brakes, no problems.

Speaking of brakes. 

I am from a Radio Control background, where you have the ability to change some settings of the ESC.

Can the Brakes, timing and Frequency be changed and how ?

Thanks in advance for any replies,

Dennis
