|  What is the best drag brake you can get on a sidewinder?
Mine was maxed out, and still rolled back on an incline...... :-(

if you're using the latest castle link update then set it to "crawler full on" thats is the best your going to get. Software bug will not allow any setting above 100% to take...you can set it but it will revert back to ZERO when you update> Understand the motor has much to do with drag brake as well... worn/soft brushes and or weak/soft brush springs will ruin the best drag brake function of the ESC... as will motors with weak magnets. Edit to add: my sidewinders hold VERY well with the new update using crawler full on... my mamba max holds to well... I hope castle gets the bug fixed so I can reduce to say 170% or so and have the setting take. Last edited by JSN; 01-15-2010 at 02:13 PM. |

Yeah, It was set to crawler full on. Older motors, prob what it is. This is using a 27T brushed motor. |
