I have a Sidewinder that I just got from a friend but I have no Castle Link, I wanted to know what are the best setting to use for crawling useing the manual ESC set up, such as brake/ reverse type, brake amount, reverse amount, punch control, drag brake, etc. thanks for any and all help, this is my first CC ESC so I am not familiar with what setting to use in each of the different areas.
