futaba 3pk ,epa problem
#1
does anyone know how i can make my epa on throttle work in settings i can use ,because now with my epa on throttle needs to be set at 0,and my throttle opens up about 80 % ,i have adjusted subtrims up and down with no succsess ,any way i can somehow make epa be about 80 when my throttles fully open ??,i have even done a system reset still no sucsess

I would set your Throttle EPA to 80% first. Then I would remove the horn on your throttle servo and with the car/radio turned on hold the throttle on your radio all the way down.
Reattach your horn so that your carb is fully open while the throttle is still held.
Then when you let off the throttle your carb should close, and when you hit the throttle again you will have 80% travel and a fully open carb.
Hope that helps.

I think I understand what you are asking and will answer accordingly.

all right mr neu racer ,i wasent confident on your theory but gave it a try what happens is when the servo returns to neutral the brakes are strongly on and the servos whinning cause its forced so far over in max brake territory ,tried it again with epa on 5o then 30 same deal ,so no luck ,
and mr jonny socko,,all my subtrims were on 0 ,my throttle is a neutral .no drag barke ,,i turn my epa to 80% and pull throttle full forward and nearly rip the carby off ,its pulling way to far forward ,reduce to about 80% of Carb open and my epa is at ZERO wtf

,,
i am suprized because my 3pk used to be about 50/60 epa at full throttle before on other cars ,,? ,,,i have even done the throttle adjuster ,which resets your neutral ,full throttle and brake positions ,o
oh well any body else got similar problem or ideas ?

you can change from 50/50 to 70/30, maybe that model setting is 70/30
you can turn thr throttle side epa all the way down to 1percent then work your way up
I'm going to guess that maybe a shorter servo arm would work better?

what hes saying is to do what he explained AND THEN adjust your sub trims so nothing is whining.
