Throttle profile: 3
Drag brake: 0
Brake strength: 60 is the most I've ever needed. I dial it back according to the track surface so that I'm just shy of locking the tires up. 50 is a safe all around number, but gearing will also affect this.
Throttle minimum: 10
Brake minimum: 10
Reverse strength: 20 (just enough to roll backwards if I need to during practice)
This is all geared at either 15 or 16 teeth on the pinion with the 62 tooth spur for my local tracks. Temp your motor after 3 and 5 minutes and gear accordingly, but I come off between 140 and 180 depending on the track.
lmk if I missed any... lol
i have the same motor i am pretty sure you are over gearing it i run no bigger then the 13 tooth i come off the track at 120-150 and it is fast
