I set mine to 100%. If you program it at 100% leave it there or go down.

No need, you program the controller the adjust to the maxximum travel. if you program it with epa on 120, he sees the 120 as 100 percent.

my XS3 goes to 125% and i set it there. Then i reset the epa for 100%, if i need more i can go up, but most places i run i can set it for 100% after i set the esc to 125% and its enough cause of lack of traction


Work because i gotta, play because i wanna

People here hate Nitro, I love it. I start it, run it about 50 ft from me and it dies, I go after it. Perfect exercise

So basically, that would have the same effect as calibrating your ESC at 100% EPA, and then increasing it to 125% when/if you need it right?

No accually it is more like programming it at 100 then droping to 80 to run. Only use the 100 when track allows. I have done this before as well. It gives you little more control over the throttle input of the car.
