That initial thread I opened of the "known issue" with the xlx2 WAS what would be considered an issue, and the first tech guy I talked to made it clear to me that it was, but a "fix" wouldn't be issued for a while. When I was told it was rpm matching, they didn't elaborate on it enough, so I assumed all their escs did it, and that the xlx2 was doing it incorrectly causing it to "apply" the brakes. I just got off the phone, they processed my claim, and told me everything came back perfectly, and that the "issue" I'm having is the rpm matching doing what it's supposed to do. Why would they even implement this if it's stupidly annoying to run any vehicle with? I wasn't really told the benefits of why they use this, I'm assuming it's for efficiency? But I don't see how efficient it could be to intermittently apply the brakes to match the rpm, especially when it locks up the tires sometimes. When I opened that thread originally, some people said they weren't experiencing this issue, so I'm lead to believe people didn't 100% understand what I meant? With that being said, I don't think I'd want to deal with something like that for everyday driving. Probably just going to have to settle for a max 5, which isn't ideal... It all feels like a huge waste now, absolutely ridiculous... This wouldn't be an issue if they'd allow the user to disable this, but it's most likely more complicated than that, and I won't pretend to understand how that would work. I don't have another cryo drive castle ESC in my hands to try out for myself, so I'm not even sure if what they're saying is 100% true or not. I've never seen that behavior in any videos I've watched on the mmx8s or the xlx2.
