Setting up a 3Pk with the slash, help please!
 
I can not for the life of my figure this out. I think I MIGHT have tracked down a setting on the 3PK that allows you adjust the center point of the servo which would help.

Anyhow, my problem is that I have to adjust my throttle trim all the way negative for the slash and the motor still wants to creep forward. I can't find anything on the XL5 for programming in throttle endpoints. Usually an ESC will have you program endpoints in when you change over to a new radio.

Any ideas? Will this servo centering option on the 3PK help?

Best to call Traxxas about this problem.

try reversing the throttle servo channel and running the speedo setup.

if the truck wants to go forward when you press the brake, reverse the servo on the 3pk programming, then use the subtrim to get the truck to a neutral state, go into your epa and with the tires off the ground, go full throttle and adjust the epa positive or negative to reach full speed at full trigger lock, then do the same for the brake.

this works the same way for the steering, use the subtrim to center it, then epa to stop at maximum turning without fully locking out the hubs, it will create strain on your servo.

I have a 3pk w/spektrum module. I reversed the throttle setting on the radio and reset the ESC.
