FIRST, yes I googled and read answers regarding this issue. I noticed that my SkyRc GNSS was giving false readings the last week or so. Regardless of changes etc, I would get the following speeds:


One of the above was done in my RL 4x4 on a highway and just over 100kmh. So I know the GNSS is giving false readings. Is there any way to calibrate these systems?

Secondly, I've noticed I have way more power and speed in reverse than forward. So I DID search here and tried reversing throttle and switching around cables, reversed throttle again. No matter what I do, there is more power and speed coming from reverse. Full throttle in reverse leaves rubber on pavement where forward has yet to do that. And im stumped. Here are the significant settings on my RadioLink setup. Before I further screw anything up, is there something I'm missing here?

You need to set your transmitter to normal not reversed, then recalibrate the for/neutral/rev on the transmitter to get the power right
I have the same radiolink, it is not the setup, mine did the same thing

I would turn abs off and restore factory defaults on all throttle stuff on the transmitter before calibration. It’s happened to 2 of my ARRMAS, and my tfl pursuit boat that I installed my radiolink in 😂 very frustrating

Also: Now after that if you pull the trigger to forward and the car goes backwards, I would then swap 2 motor wires, and try that. You should get 100% when you pull the trigger to forward, no matter what direction the car goes lol. Then it’s just the wires
 
I did all this when I first bound the receiver to the radio. I have rc7gs receivers in my 3s and 6s and use one transmitter.
But in the event I did it wrong(always possible) I'm going to reset and recalibrate. Will report back tonight if it works. At this point I will try anything because it's frustrated me all weekend.

Thanks for the suggestion. We had a storm last night and I didn't get to try it. Just did now and yeah, I must have calibrated wrong because I'm getting the power forward now. Bye bye GRPs!
