Default 4PKS Setup for 1/8 scale buggy

Can anyone give me their radio setup? I don't mean basic stuff like EPA's, subtrims or rev, but things like A.B.S., EXP, THEXP, STSPD, ACCEL, etc? Just a rookie trying to speed up the learning curve.

Most of that is all stuff tha needs set at the track to help the car handle better.. Way too many factors involved to give you a general idea. Leave the ABS off, and leave everythign else at normal, until you hit the track, then make adjustments as needed..

I'm using a 4PK. I agree with Scotty. Your questions are really based on your personal feel. Best thing you can do is to experiment with one setting at a time and learn how you feel each one works.
Having said that, I do not use any of them.

I have used throttle speed a few times to slow it down a touch on a slick track.

Read the manual.

Setups as mentioned will be different it all dpends on your kit, servo, and kit setup.

It could be overwhelming once you get time on the unit it will be much easier. Also start going to a track, meet new friends they will help you.

Thanks to everyone for the advise and info. Alan Burton is comming to our track to give a 3 day class and that should speed up the learning curve also.
