The ESC is what controlls the breaks... you sure it's set up in the correct mode?

We need to know what kind of ESC you are running to be able to help you out on this. Like he just said in his post, the ESC controls the brakes. Now the brakes can be tuned on the TX, but the ESC is what has the brakes. Are you running a brushed or brushless motor?

You know that you are not going to get the kind of brakes out of that ESC like you do in a Novak crawler or Mamba right or a ESC for crawlers.....Check your settings on your DX3R.....
