Stay on the throttle more, because on deceleration your rear wheels will slow down with the drag brake and want to bring the rear around. Also, you could be chassis slapping too much on landing, causing the car to become unsettled. Anyways, hard to say without watching it in action.

Default Parking at TRCR

You can park all along the fence it's a city street ignore that idiots
(Tacoma Towing signs)(he will need a cop to authorize a tow) just dont block his gate it is his only access to his property. If he had a brain he would post a sign that said Please don't block the gate.
I think he likes the conflict. I'd be pissed if someone parked across my driveway. But A sign would help. Some people just don't grasp reality well.

You can't Fix Stupid.

Hey guys, need a little help.

I've got the LRP80710 ESC on my B4, with a brushless LRP Vector-X12 13.5T motor. The manual is here, but I can't post full links yet: aedownloads.com/downloads/manuals/LRP80710_SPX.pdf

When I had Scott first set me up, I was brand new to the hobby, so he put the ESC on the lowest/slowest setting. I'm not sure what that setting was, but I want to "bump it up" a bit, as I feel I'm better than when I started. The manual says Value 1-Value 4 is for mod motors 4T - 8.5T. Value 5-Value 8 is for stock motors 8.5T to 21.5T. Value 1 seems to be the slowest from just playing around with it a little, but I don't want to go burning anything up or going overkill. There is also smooth, linear, and aggressive, and I'm not exactly sure what those mean. What value would you guys recommend for me? I'm still in the novice class, but want to go a little faster. =) Thanks for the help.

So the default "Value 3: 3X Power: Smooth" would work? What's the point of going all the way up to 7X power?

More top speed mostly...

Not that you need it ...

Smooth is faster ...

OK, gotcha. Maybe for a larger course, but you don't really hit top speeds much at TRCR. Since I'm still pretty new to this, I might as well ask if there's any chance of burning up the motor or ESC if I cranked it all the way up? (Not that I would, just don't know where the risk of breaking things comes in.)

You could cause the motor to get to hot , so if you do try ?

Only run for a couple min and check motor temperature ...

Recheck untill you are sure ...
