and mr jonny socko,,all my subtrims were on 0 ,my throttle is a neutral .no drag barke ,,i turn my epa to 80% and pull throttle full forward and nearly rip the carby off ,its pulling way to far forward ,reduce to about 80% of Carb open and my epa is at ZERO wtf

,,

i am suprized because my 3pk used to be about 50/60 epa at full throttle before on other cars ,,? ,,,i have even done the throttle adjuster ,which resets your neutral ,full throttle and brake positions ,o

oh well any body else got similar problem or ideas ?
let us know

When you pulled up your ADJUST menu what did it show for the throttle channel? If it's off either way by more than 15-20% you probably need a new throttle pot for the trigger. The shorter servo horn someone else suggested might work but even the longest ones will still allow enough adjustment without having to turn the EPA down to 0.
