Default sidewinder esc programing?

My lcc has been down for a couple weeks due to waiting for parts... When i got it put back together last night i had to do the manual re-programing with my remote and when it was finished i got full throttle fornt but on creeping slow reverse? I tried to do it a bunch more times and got the same results... Can somebody explain to me what i might be doing wrong? Thanks in advance!!

Sounds like you may have used a limited reverse setting, the default is 50%. Save yourself some time and use a Castle Link. Your LHS may even have one they will let you use in store.

Did you recalibrate your radio to the ESC as well?

x2, find someone with a castle link

What remote are you using? I'm thinking it's possible you changed the EPA of the brake

I am using a tq3. I have had to reset it a couple times before and i did just the same and this time it is different... I guess i will just have to go to the hobby shop to see if they have a link....
