Yeah a burn Amps might have to be made

One thing I did notice with the electric conversion over nitro is the brakes, I'm used to having superb brakes setup bias just as I want. With ESC brakes its a different story, I usualy have my mechanical brakes setup so I can stop the car very quickly in the first 1/4 of the stick movement. With the ESC brakes I found it difficult to move the stick so far again to stop the car. Also with running the Mugen underdriven rear gearing the brakes applied through the drive train made the rear bias too much as the back wheels go slower than the front with that gearing.

When I initialy setup the ESC can I pull the stick back only half of the travel to trick it into making the brakes work faster? And what will happen if I go beyond that half way point? Or should I set a low end point on the brake, set the ESC then increase the end point to achieve the same?
