I'm looking into getting a 3PK but have a question.
There is no feature built in to the 3PK to adjust the throttle/brake throw like in the 3PJ's (50:50 or 70:30). The 3PK defauls to 50:50 and there is no other option. Futaba claims that most newer ESC's control the throw. I looked at the setup instructions for the Quantum Comp & the GT7 and good ole Cyclones and it says to set the throw to 70:30 before set-up.

I accidentally had my 3PJ set to 50:50 for my electric buggy and the throttle response was way too much so i'm worried about getting the 3PK. 50:50 is fine for 1/12th & gas & TC but not electric offroad.

For you 3PK owners running electric offroad: Do you find the throttle response linear or does it GO at the slightest throttle movement?

Thx,
John
