from the BRCA 12th Scale AGM of 2011, Zero timing = Blinky ;)

Zero timing’ brushless speed controllers
A speed controller that has a 'zero timing profile', that does not alter the pre-set mechanical timing of the motor in any way and disables any advanced motor control; functions (ie. Boost, Cheat mode, Turbo etc.). This profile is known as ' Boost 0'.

The commutation sequence is limited to "6 step" type and commutation of the Speed control must follow the motors hall sensor signals 1:1. Therefore no change of timing (either advance or allowed at any RPM." When the "Boost 0" profile is activated, it will be identified by a blinking LED while the ESC is armed and in neutral position.
