Stampede won't change to 70/30

[mark9er]

I've had my stampede 4 about a year running on 50/50 so the other day i swicthed it on 70/30 tuned throttle trim all the way to the right and it still goes bacwards very slowly

When you make that switch you have to reset the ESC.

how would i do that?

if you have the XL-1, you need to take it out and adjust the nuetral adjustment screw. the manual explains how to do this. if you have a different ESC, its manual should explain how.

then you've got one freaky XL-1. i don't know how you managed to not have to change anything, cause when you switched to 70/30, it should have been going in reverse. and switching to 70/30 shouldn't make a huge difference in speed, it should only give you more precise throttle control. (and yes, i have tried this)

I have also. It's true. I don't really see much of a difference in speed, but the throttle control is more "fine tuned".

i could go to both with all 3 escs ive had and not have to reporgram esc and i did it with the stinger and the speed gem 19t arcornite motor

and to me i didnt notice any diffrence in the power from 70/30 and 50/50

There shouldn't be any difference in power. It simply allows for finer throttle control in the forward direction.
