Here’s something else I noticed with my hobbywing stuff… I calibrate the esc at 100% brake and throttle. If I calibrate it at 100% and bump the epa to 110% it lets the motor run faster. Try it with your xr10 pro g2s. Calibrate it at 100% then run it at 100%. Pull over bump the epa up to 110% on your transmitter and see if it’s faster down the straight. It should never get faster if you go over 100% but it does.
Someone else try this too and tell me if you notice it or not.
Now I know you're talking placebos. Telemetry on the G2S proves the motor doesn't run faster. Once the LED on the ESC goes solid at full throttle, it's at 100% duty cycle. Giving it 110% input just means it hits full throttle earlier in the trigger range, acting like a throttle curve. The motor absolutely does not run faster.
