Hydra 120 Braking Issue

[Takedown]

I am having issues with setting up the brakes on my Hydra 120 ESC. I am running it in my e-maxx on 4s lipo with a 50-55 600kv outrunner in direct drive mode. When Im driving and I tap the brakes just enough to slow down it automatically flips into reverse right away without even giving the brakes a chance to kick in. I know its a boat esc but is their any way of fixing this issue. All I need is about 2-4 secs for braking before it kicks into reverse and Ill be fine. Is their anything that will help fix it such as the pi-stix adapter or does the castle link have a proportional braking setting? I really would liek to get this fixed. Thanks to all that help.
