Hi. I'm new to RC cars but have successfully converted a FTX Outlaw brushed to brushless using a Hobbywingvsensorless 3660 motor (3800kv I think) and 60 amp sensored esc. Using a new 5mm shaft 17t pinion and original 62t spur gear on 2s 4000mah lipo it's nice and fast but lifts a front wheel under high acceleration. I've put a front sway bar from a Vantage on which made little difference so need to work out a rear sway bar next.
But the main problem is in programming the esc. I have the led programming card which seems to work but the settings don't always do anything. The esc does seem to remember the new settings but braking force doesn't work. I can't get the first trigger forward press to apply brakes. I have the esc set to forward brake reverse and have some drag braking set but cant get controlled braking. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?
