Keep us informed as to your results

Hi guys,

I have changed my FDR to 3.52 with about 2.5 timing on the motor. It has slightly more torque as compared with my previous 3.33 FDR. However, I noticed that the breaking response is slower than my previous motor, given the same setup and tyres. I have set my HobbyWing XR10 Pro 160A ESC's drag break to 0% and break control to 100% (the max), but the break response doesn't seems to have much improvement. I supposed it has something to do with my Team Powers Plutonium v2 17.5T motor since the break response is slower after changing to this motor. Any idea what can I do to improve the break response (e.g. Change the default rotor to a bigger or smaller diameter)? I don't feel like changing my current Team Powers motor since I just bought it and it's a waste if I switch to another new motor of different brand.
