Default Adjusting reverse speed with Futaba 3PK?

Whats going on everyone? SO yesterday I picked up a built setup that came with a Futaba 3PK radio and after playing around with it I cant figure out how to set the reverse so it much slower.

Basically right now if I barely tough the reverse it jumps back super fast. Any way of adjusting it so when I push it it crawls back and now so fast?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi

Try putting the EPA for revers(TH-BRK) at 50% or something, that will make it slower(smoother) but you will not be able to do a full speed revers(who need to do that anyway?). This works for me.

You can also adjust the servo speed in either or both directions on the 3PK. It's in the menu as THR-SPD

What ESC/ESC's are in the rig? Have you tried resetting it/them to the radio?

I have the M2 Dig in it. How would I go about resetting it to the radio? I do need to rematch the radio with the dig.
