brake on stop at zero throttle #46

Closed kasatka60 closed 2 years ago

kasatka60 commented 2 years ago

is it possible to implement a brake on stop at zero throttle on airplanes?

mathiasvr commented 2 years ago

I'm not sure what you mean? Have you enabled 'brake on stop'? At zero throttle motors should stop and the ESC will exit the run loop.

so that the brake only works at zero throttle. when the gas is reduced, the brake does not engage.

Okay, so basically having 'max braking strength' at zero (no active braking / damped light), but at zero throttle it should do full braking? This is similar to what 'brake on stop' does but it has a delay before it kicks in and will disarm the ESC before motors is fully stopped.

Have you tried 'braking strength' at 0 with 'brake on stop' enabled? Is this close to what you want?

I'll try

Exactly what is needed. thanks for the help
