Brakes!?
Hey All,
Been playing with my speedo settings since i last posted about this, but i'm still struggling to get any brake strength.
I've tried 5 different motors and both v189 and v194. On the bench the brakes seems and sharp, but once it hits the track and put some weight behind it, they're incredibly weak to the point of being closer to drag brakes!
for my current settings, see attachment.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated as im desperate for some kind of breaks!
I would also add, that one of the configs i've tried, is the RS, Tekin redline 13.5 and the tekin 3400 lipos
TIA
Ian

Not sure if it will help, but did you try turning the push control off?

Nope, i actually set it from 100% to 120% on sunday and then re calibrated the speedo to that, just to be sure.
The lights go all the way down to end when braking and as i say, when under no load, the brakes are instant and sharp.
Thanks for the suggestions so far guys

What radio are you using? You may want to try turning your neutral width to around 20 and keep reseting your radio to esc

i'm using the futaba 3pk and i've also tried a KO Universe 3. Neither seem to help, but ill try a bigger NW this weekend.

when you hit full brake, do all the lights light up then start blinking?

Thanks guys, hopefully this is the fix im looking for. this is why i love using tekin products

well your ESC does not think you are pushing full brake. So try doing that initial radio setup thing where you hold down the mode button as you turn it on.

I'd done that quite a few times, but obviously didnt fully register it till i took Kenny's advise and changed the neutral width.
