Default 1/8 buggy xerun settings

I have strayed away from Tekin on my backup buggy and got a150 amp xerun esc. Does anybody have a suggestion for esc settings running 4s with a 1900kv gen2 motor?

Start with punch on 6 or 7 , no timing at all , brakes on 75 , and lvc at 3.0 . Thats where I usually end up ...

This is what you'll want. The punch really depends on your driving style. I like it at 1-3 but everything else listed is spot on.

I have that identical setup. "Hobby-Tek"

Running 50% brake (still very strong, likely try 25% soon), "punch" at 4, initial brake 20%, timing 18.75, lipo cutoff 3.0v (kicks in early), no drag brake.

Set throttle at 150% on transmitter.

Runs very cool (never over 125F on motor, or 110F on ESC).

Tried 75% brake, but is made it hard to keep the rear from lifting off the ground if traction was good.
Suuuper strong brakes!

Why would you set your throttle on 150%?

That would be a pretty standard setup, I sometimes even use 50% for brakes, and always turn off my lvc for racing but that's up to you.
