try increasing (higher stage frequencies) the entire the profile so you have less punch. check your gearing also for your motor wind, track conditions and track length.

I've been running the VFS-1 pro comp in stock TC and it's been great. I just picked up a Twister 2.1 for my 1/12 scale car. We run 19t motors in 1/12 but I haven't been able to find a setup for this. Any help?

Go to KOpropo.com and there are off road 2wd and 4wd profiles

I ran a Hara at our state titles and using their profiles the car was the slowest on the main straight, it took a bit of time to make my own profile and then the speed was great and i won the event.
These are the best speedys on the market but they take a bit of time to get your head around, but when you do, there the best.

when in doubt. LOWER the whole profile 10 stages then you'll feel/see the difference.

Exactly where are the profiles on the Ko Propo website? I would like to get my hands on some mod setups.

The exact web link, please.

Thankyou

Not sure how to post links but go to the website, click on "support" and then "vfs help center". Should take you there.

Default VFS-2000 setting card

For those of you that are interested, KO has just released the setting card for the VFS-2000. You can use this card with the mutli setting adapter.

I know it's the older esc, but some might be interested so that you don't have to haul around both setting adapters.

I've uploaded the image also. All the same settings that you can do with the VFS-2000, not the VFS-1.

Reading all the these posts have made me crave for the VFS-1 esc, but is it really worth paying 250 for all the equipment and time needed to create and program the unit? When you can buy the new QC3 or GTX and plug and play.

Oh, I am a serious racer and soon dominate my local track in mod.

If you like plug and play but most of us like to get the absolute max out of our stuff this is the best speed control out there!
