I run factory settings in the ESC. No drag brake.
I'm have 2 bodies so I might hack one up a bit to get some airflow.
I sure hope I can make this work though, the buggy friggin rips. I never ran 1/8 scale until about a month ago and I havent lost a race yet with it (ok...lost one race to casey Peck but I actually hung with him for a while!!!).
