I turned its punch control up as far as it would go and it made no difference, still accelerates like a dog. The ESC is going to full throttle, and has good top-end, and I don't know what the fix is, does a software update put some more punch into the thing?
Run better batteries? Hobbywing does state that you need high quality batteries with high C ratings.
