    Punch control

    Please explain the punch control settings on the Castle creation quick field card. What does 100% to 0%(default setting) do to throttle? Please any input and yes I did search and did not find what I was looking for.

    100% is turned on highest which means you need to tame your system down a lot. 0% is all the way off or disabled which you would run with a mild battery setup. I don't use any punch control... but i am using 20c 4s batteries. (rather tame)

    So running Hyperion vz 3s 4500 30c and hyperion vz 2s 4500 30c, what should I set it to? I do 65% bashing and 35% racing.

    I'd try the punch set at 0% for both set ups. Then just increase it each level if the truck seems uncontrollable and flips on its lid when you full throttle.

    If you're trying to find out if the setting will limit the amount of amps the motor tries to draw.... idk.

    A full trigger pull will always result in full draw. Punch control limits the rate of change of power allowed, not the endpoint. Set it to what you are comfortable with. You will likely decrease it to 0% eventually.

    I set mine to where it will barely pull a wheel stand, because I don't like driving on 2 wheels when I have 4. Slowly set it down to wher your happy when you hit full throttle from a standstill, thta's how I set mine. it will still pull a wheelie but barely and I like it like that.
