By shunting your motors when they get to the top, it will allow them to return back down at a slow and constant velocity. Ever drop magnets down a copper pipe? The same principle works for the motors. If the motor wires are shunted together, back emf will in effect prevent the motors from backdriving to fast. The trick we're still figuring out is how to switch the battery power off FIRST then shunt the motors SECOND. It's all about careful alignment of switches. Of course there's always the fuse that blows if it happens in the reverse order.
