do they repeat? or is it just the VESC timeout. which defaults to 1s which is far to long. until that expires it keeps the last throttle signal it received.

I suspect the receiver might just bridge the packets sent from the remote over the air to the uart. and not really have a “failsafe”

I think that’s why we see the issue more with uart remotes.

for ServoControl (PWM, PPM) we just luck out that the recievers do have a failsafe on disconnect which is faster, than the internal vesc timeout… so most people don’t see it. but you can get the same effect if you cut the servo input from the receiver to the vesc.

everyone should turn that timeout down by default. more vesc things
