The capacitor provides starting motor torque as well as phase lead/lag to determine direction of rotation of the motor. It has nothing to do with how much current flows in the brake circuit. I had the capacitor remoted at the rotor in all my HyGain rotors. (Which are now long gone, replaced by Alfa Spids).
