So I snagged a Furitek lizard pro so I could run MoFo’s nanobeast in my Deadbolt.
I saw lots of videos that praised the ability to make adjustments to the Esc but my instructions don’t say what each setting does. Has anyone dug into the adjustments that can explain what they actually do?
Thanks muchly for your help.

Hi, could you cut and paste please?
Thanks

Cut and Paste as requested.

I got a reply back from Furitek about all the settings on the app! Just thought I'd share!
I was really confused about the neutral forward and neutral brake settings on the app. After half a year of fiddling, I was able to figure out most of the rest on my own and with help from here. This is the response I got.



"I have this for you

-Mode : pretty self-explanatory, it sets if you have forward/brake/reverse, forward/reverse or just forward brake. (I suggest forward/reverse)

-volt cutoff : that's the V you esc will indicate that your battery is low voltage and need to be charged (I suggest 3.4v)

-rotation direction : that's the way your motor is spinning, either clockwise or counterclockwise.

-startup power : Basically if you have too much power on the low end of your throttle you can turn it down, or up if you don't feel it has enough, that's more of a personal preference you will have to play with it.

-the 3 "max" setup : that's how powerful your forward/brake/and reverse is, you can adjust that from 1 to 100 ( 1 is low and 100 is max ) By turning up/down the throttle you'll have either more or less, same for reverse and brake.

-Drag brake : the esc automatically apply drag brake progressively when releasing the throttle instead of having to push brake yourself, you need this in crawler, how much you want is a personal preference and you should play with that setup.

-Neutral forward : this is to adjust depending on your remote setup, Depending on the brand you might need to have a narrower or wider range. I suggest leaving this neutral if you're not sure.

-punch : punch is how aggressive your throttle response is, on some esc lower is smoother and will be much more progressive than being set higher.

-Neutral brake is pretty unneeded in crawler so don't worry about that."



Hope that helps anyone confused with the settings on the Furitek app!
 
I like to set up my throttle curve with some expo.
This gives greater control for the slow technical stuff.
