The weird thing is I had no delay prior to putting the brushless in. That said, I tried holding the throttle while powering on and once I let it go it no longer take 5 seconds to respond and now only takes about 2 seconds... You have any suggestions for a quality budget radio?

Arrma Senton mega with STX2 radio (not the best I know but what I have for now)...if I can recalibrate maybe it'll help till I can afford a better setup. Love the Senton with brushed but is way better brushless

Can't access the PDF, says it is unavailable... I thought of cogging, which it does do, but the issue is the throttle doesn't even kick in for a few seconds after you punch the throttle...

Yes, I had to reinstall the switch as it would not work (even after calibration) with a standard switch. I definitely messed up the calibration though, think so at least...

That's the thing, "the book" is ONE page of really bad English that doesn't even talk about calibrating in the first place. Never mind how to redo it... I set the break to 25%, start mode is strong, reverse 50% and I've tried neutral range at all three but is currently at 6%...

I figured out the factory switch has two buttons for the calibration. I did it but I'm not sure I did it right and cannot figure out how to reset it to redo it. Not sure what launch control is... I'm new to brushless and programming esc in general

I bought this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B07WHCM3Y2/ref=ya_aw_od_pi?ie=UTF8&psc=1 And the programming card, programmed the esc and connected/installed everything according to the incredibly crappy instructions but when I power it up all that happens is the motor beeps and the led flashes for a second on the esc then goes off. Steering works fine but I have zero throttle response. Any of y'all have any suggestions how to make this work? Edit: I put the original switch back on (two push buttons) and was able to get the motor working. However, it has a noticeable delay from when I hit the throttle to when it actually accelerates. Anyone know how to change this delay?
