|  Rtr wraith drag brake setting?
Can anyone tell me what the stock ae-2 drag brake setting is on the rtr wraith? It hardly works and I'm wondering if its set low as a default.

I've read it's supposed to be fairly high, 100% IIRC, but mine wasn't 100% when I finally got the castle link to check it. I think it was only 50%. BUT, I didn't know at the time that the stock motor is quite weak, so it may not be the drag brake's 'fault', if you know what I mean. HTH! |

Yeah, I was wondering if it was because of the motor.i have a 35t I can put in but I like the speed with the 20 turn, so I'm hoping its just the settings.

When I connected a stock AE-2 to Castle Link i'm pretty sure the drag brake was only at 50%. That being said, the drag brake has a lot of variables that affect it's performance, all the way to the brushes and their springs. If you set your drag brake to 100% and it still seems lacking, you can replace the motor with a higher quality but still quick motor and the drag brake effect should increase. |

Ok, I'll try and get a hold of a castle link and test is out. The motor is brand new so it should have some holding power still.

I was able to manually program it and now it's at 100%. Must be 50% from factory.
