I have improved a bit each time, but my big difficulty remains adjusting the speed down while cornering.
I have an older Futaba controller with a lot of trim adjustments and I am willing to spend $100 dollars on a new controller if it wouold help.
My question is what kind of adjustments or settings can be made to a transmitter which will make it easier for a new driver to learn to control car.
First off, I agree with the other's viewpoint; but we are kind of looking at your situation with a "shotgun approach". In other words, we are trying to cover all the bases.
You indicate that your current controller has "a lot of trim adjustments"; so, I wonder why you are looking at that as being your control issue?
I often run a XXX-S with rubber tires on tight carpet tracks and want to "carry speed" while cornering. Otherwise, I am not sure why you are using foams for a stocker motor setup.
Can you further describe what you are experiencing? Do you feel the power progressively grow as you pull the trigger? Or, does it just feel like...on/off (with no inbetween)?
