Spektrum DX3S question

[Martijn]

Hi,

So I have a Spektrum DX3S and I can't There is a problem with the travelsettings

I want to lower this because if I brake, it's just like you handbrake the car.
And I run a B4.1 so it's pretty sensitive if I brake, it just flips around..

If I change this, to lower then 100% then the car just drives forward

Thanks

Ive had this sort off problem before mate.

What speedo do you have ?

[Martijn]

I have a LRP SXX Stock Spec v2 with the LRP X12 17.5motor.

ive had that speedo too

look at the manual at the setting up process and reset the throttle, neutrul and brake setting and that should help.

before when i braked the brake was far to sharp and it would just spin out. Once you have reset it just lower the brake % and it makes it less sharp and increase it for more brake.

oke so 3sec on set button neutral press set, full throtle again set and brake again set and it should be ok?

[Martijn]

i just resetted it and i still have the problem when i turn the travel of the braking lower then 70% the motor spins...

hmm

When I had that problem o didn't have to do that all I did was reset it on the handset and reset the throttle brake and neutral and it all worked

Reset the model on the handset for your B4.1 model. This will change the name, but will remove any odd settings like weird throttle curves or anything else like that.

Once you have done that, go through the speedo setup again. Once complete, if the car still emits this behaviour, you can do the following:

1) Turn down the braking effect/travel/strength on the speedo - those speedos have very strong brakes, and are known for their power. See if there is a 75% or 50% setting for the brakes.

2) Then fine tune the brake travel/EPA on the handset to fine tune during a race.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the responds guys.

I'll give it a try tomorrow. I just ran the car now with braking on level 4

Hi,

So I tried this now for like 3-4 times but still nothing...

I tried to reset the esc to it's default settings, still nothing...

I'm really getting frustrated
