I've got a LCC with a MMP, when I let off the throttle is coasts to a stop. It happens in forward and reverse, my gears are good. I reloaded my settings and recalibrated my controller with no improvement. Anyone have this problem and have a fix?

is your drag brake disabled. on my losi i had to set some drag brake to get rid of it, i had to set mine to only like 25% drag brake, or is this a recent issue that wasnt there before?

It's a more recent issue. I noticed it every now and then but now it's constant. I'll try the drag brake but I know that causes extra heat.

Tried the drag brake and it helped but didn't stop it.

isnt there a dead band setting on the castle software. maybe its set too low? i dunno, just a thought..what tx are you using?

Ya there is a dead band setting, I'll try that too. Tx is a dx3r, I've messed with the expo a little but it didn't help.

Since you have a LCC, the wormdrive usually provides plenty of drag brake on it's own.

1-Does the rig do this going forward & backward, or just 1? (wondering if the throttle trim on the TX is a bit off).
2-Have you rebuild your motors recently? I'm wondering if your motor brushes are about done and you have limited drag from them against the comm.
3-Are you due to relube grease your wormdrives? Some extra grease will add drag.
