Well, it is the 2.4g 3PM. I really don't care too much for the reverse brake feature. Pushing the throttle forward to the reverse side and it applies the brake and you have to return the throttle to the neutral position and then push it back to go into reverse. This is a pain when you have over done a clime and you need reverse to save it from rolling over, (bashing of coarse). I have read the manual and searched on here but have not found a way to disable it and allow instant reverse. Any help or suggestions would be cool. The truck is an AX10 with a Tekin FXR 35t.

that is in the programming of your esc not you radio. i use the 3pm, and a sidewinder and it is all up the the esc. look into the programming of that esc.

I was wondering if that may be the case. I will see what I can do with that. This is my first one with this combo.

i think you need a "hotwire" to program it. either way, that is where your "issues" are going to lay down by the bay sitting on some hay what do you say?

Ok, you were correct on it being the ESC. Thanks for the help. With the Tekin FXR, you can turn it on or off with the adjustment modes on the unit. It is the 5th led or option to adjust. I just changed the setting and now it is perfect. No more brake instead of reverse. Then I just increased the drag brake and it works sweet now. Cool. product.

Another kool thing about the fxr is ya don't need the hotwire to program any of the features. Hotwire is for downloading updates and fine tuning.
