I recently bought a Toro TS 150A ESC and there are two things that I don't like.

First thing - when you slowly accelerate and then go back to neutral, right after putting the trigger back to neutral position, the car like jumps forward a little. Imagine driving 1:1 manual transmission car and stopping without clutch. The car jumps a bit forward. So cause of this, it's almost impossible to stop from low speed on desired place or just drive slowly with putting the trigger to neutral sometimes. You stop and after putting the trigger to neutral, the car still goes a little forward. Like an power pulse going to the motor.

Second thing - the reverse. The reverse curve is messed up. In the first like 10 % of the trigger position, the reverse speed is insane, like 70 % right away. But if you skip the first 10 % of reverse trigger position quickly enough, the reverse behaves as it should, nice and proportional. It's hard to explain, but it's a big problem. Imagine the custom throttle line you can set via the skylink software. First 10 % of X axis have constant 70 % Y axis value. Then the Y value drops to 0% and then the line rises and is nice and proportional. When you try to reverse slowly, the car just spurts back.

I have my Sanwa transmitter binded and set correctly, no EXPO, all trims on 0, nothing that can possible affect this. Im riding Xray XB8e and I use sensored LRP DYNAMIC 8 motor. My car is new, with new electronics and new good quality LI-Po 4S battery. I use no timings, no boost, no turbo. What Im trying to say it's really not my fault. I have 12+ years experience in RC world.

Does this happen to you guys with this ESC?
