Kraton Need help with brakes settings.

[OG*GOBLIN]

Hi, I've got an EXB with spektrum 160aEsc. I followed the directions and have it set at 100% but it brakes like it's at 20%. The brakes are also set to 100% on my DX 5 Rugged. I've got a BLX with stock electronics running same settings as the EXB but it brakes way harder. Is there a certain way to dial up the brake %? I set the rugged to 100% and then the ESC. Do I need to do the ESC first while the settings on the dx5 are unchanged yet? I'm stumped

Does a DX5 have EXPO?

I believe so, but it's not something I've ever used before. I'll go through it's settings now.
Under exponential i only see options for steering and throttle.

Do you have good power in reverse? Maybe try recalibrating if you haven't already

 

[OG*GOBLIN]

Yeah, it's got good reverse. I'm wondering if when setting up the dx5 if the brake settings are supposed to be lower and not at 100%. I'll try rebinding and calibration later when I have time. Thanks

I don't remember, ill have to check when i get home. Good luck.

When recalibrating do I recalibrate the radio or the ESC. Still pretty new to this stuff. Thanks

if i remember correctly, you make sure esc settings are set and saved, then calibrate remote for steering, throttle, ect. this is out of my kraton owners manual for esc settings and the spektrum slt3 remote if it helps
