Default orion r10 pro question

ive put this in onroad as its their advice im after regarding brakes

ok guys when i hit the brakes from a high speed the brakes kind of ease in and just before the apex of a corner itll suddenly brake harder,i have it all set to 100% so cant work out why the delay,any help would be very much apreciated,im losing so much time on poor braking performance,id prefer to be able to lock the wheels and the adjust the transmitter,but im maxed on everything

Try recalibrating the system or check the sensor. That's my solution whenever my r10 starts acting up like that. Hope that will fix it

So if its spinning out use a lower drag break setting. Do you have the program box??
yes tried all that and yes i have the programmer

Hmmm try all brakes at 0 then work your way from there. My settings is 0 for both drag and initial, and 50 something for brake. I know it's a pain but once it's fixed, you'll love that esc

i do like it when im going forward its just when i try to stop,im on the brakes 5 mtrs before anyone else and when i got caught by a faster guy he just wasnt expecting me to brake where i had to,to get it slowed down enough for the turn,its like im only getting 40% then at a certain rpm i get the full works,but it always catches me out,the other guys are just having a quick stab at the brakes im on it for 1 1/2 seconds at the same corner

Not sure there would be a fix for this.

It's basically the same issue you get with the v2 Hobbywings (Orion is Hobbywing V2 hardware), there is a delay in the brakes when going straight to them which is not present if you pause and then brake.

Hobbywing have (somewhat) addressed this with the newest blinky software but I don't believe that is an option for the Orion speedo.

Isn't there an "initial brake" setting? like a brake curve?

(edit:Initial BrakeForce
minimum brake. This parameter adjusts the minimum amount of braking power when the brakes engage. The default value is qual to the drag brake value. A high value can cause the wheels to lock immediately when the brake is used.)

Maybe set your initial brake force higher? That issue would drive me bananas... i would consider that almost unusable. I need my brakes to be consistent and predictable to make the best out of my apexes.
