Free Spin Option?

Hi, I’m currently working on my own project which uses a dual flipsky fsesc 4.20. Is there an option in the Vesc project software that enables the motors to freely spin when throttle input is not given because currently my motors try and keep themselves stopped and id like it so they spin freely by hand.

Thanks

That is as free as physics allows. There are magnets in there.

Could add a one-way bearing and lose brakes

Could get a rotor with skewed magnets and low cogging torque

Could use a motor without magnets and lose a lot of power/torque
