I keep hearing “high current” ESC and now BEC. Not sure what is meant by that.
A brown out is when a receivers voltage goes below the minimum it needs to operate. Normally when this happens all servos stop working and the signal to the ESCs stop and most ESCs stop giving the motors power so they windmill to a stop, usually quickly on a EDF. Most receivers have a short period it takes to reestablish the receiver/ transmitter connection. Older Spektrum was up to about 3 seconds. Newer radios are a second or less.
Receivers are susceptible to ESC switching feedback. This is what the ferrite rings on the signal wires to the receiver are for and what I believe people using chokes are trying to defeat. 72Mhz receivers have more issues with this than 2.5Ghz.
