16. That would make mounting to different cars a lot more complicated..

Regen braking could probably be done but it couldn't be very powerful or you would rip the torque arms off..

Regen controllers for brushless motors are much more complex and expensive.. I've had a brushed motor regen controller in an electric model race car for nearly fifteen years now, it's about the size of a small matchbox and weighs about 40 grams.. Handles about 80 amps but only at 15 volts or so.

The beauty of this system is simplicity and adaptability..
