Axial Vanguard AE-3 ESC tuning

I'm currently working on a RC4WD Trail finder 2. Since I dumped so much $ into it I figured I would go fully custom. I installed a Axial Vanguard AE-3 brushless system that I've been tuning using the castle link. I can't figure out how to adjust the setting that makes it to when you let off the acceleration the truck comes to a dead stop rather than slowly decelerating, while in high gear. I've tried messing with the drag brake and several other settings and nothing seems to be working or I'm just not doing it correctly. In low gear it works perfectly... The radio I'm currently using has tons of options as well but I'm just learning how to use it (futaba T3Pm). Any info will help I really appreciate it.

Do you have it set up for a Brushless motor?

Do you have it set up for Crawler Forward/Reverse?

Do you have the Max Brake setting adjusted to 100%

Just verifying on those three. Most importantly....

**Do you have the Drag Brake setting at 213%?

I would have the Tx programmed mostly to basic/off on all settings and use the ESC's programmability to adjust things (with the exception of reversing motor direction and setting servo end points)
