i had to try and brake soo much earlier , and i felt like i would be loosing soo much time off throttle etc ..

my settings are ..

initial braking force 40%
reverse force 100%
brake force 100% and the brake force on my transmitter set to max ...

cheers for your help
I also was running at the same track as Shaun today.

Myself and 2 other SP esc drivers all suffering the same issue, seemed to be when going from Full throttle straight onto heavy braking the brakes wouldnt work properly, they seemed to work and then fade and the strength of the brakes faded.

Initial brake was good, slow speed brakes good, but after the first 0.1 of braking they seemed to fade as if the ESC ran out of power.

my settings were:
Brakes 100
reverse force 50
initial 0

We couldnt cure it.... mayb its time for a firmware update? as hte Tekins could turn inside us, even if they couldnt outpace us
