Default Throttle Limit? Help needed please!

Is there a way to get a throttle limit on a Spektrum Dx4S transmitter. Im wanting to limit the speed of my sons car, while as he is learning. The cheap Hobbyking radio we had before had EPA (End Point Adjustment), but I cant find it on the Spektrum menus!

Alternatively/additionally maybe I should be using throttle curve?

Confusingly Spektrum now call it travel and not EPA

Be careful - limiting top speed by not allowing the esc to reach full speed causes the esc to work really hard as they run at their most efficient at 100%

I ran a top spec Orion like this for my lad - and it eventually blew.

Your better off putting a slower motor in and allowing the esc to work normally
