Sensitive Throttle

Evety time I drive my rig it feels like the throttle is very sensative.
I can't crawl slowly and it feels like there's a deadzone in the transmitter but when I press the trigger lightly, the light on the esc turn on and it's receiving the signal. But it won't move untill I press it more but then it's quite fast and not crawling.

I don't know what's the cause and how to fix it.
My electronics:
HobbyWing 1060 esc
35t 540 brushed motor
SPT 30kg servo
FlySky FS-GT2 Transmitter
 
The ESC is crap for a crawler, the 1080 is much better for a few dollars more.

That said, did you properly sync the TX and esc on start up?

1080 is a great ESC, don't get me wrong, but before it, 1060 was the go-to ESC to upgrade an RTR, it's only as crappy as what the radio tells it to do.

Given the OP has a FS GT2, a FS GT3B or GT3C will be a direct drop-in with throttle exponential and reverse end-point adjustment that will already transform the 1060, while adding 3rd channel for a winch and 10 models memory for other trucks ... a better investment IMHO than a 1080 that can only be used with one truck.
 
I'd suspect the radio, I have a cheap RTR Axial transmitter and I can actually see steps in the steering so wouldn't surprise me if the throttle is not smooth.

Also with a more advanced radio you usually set a throttle curve, you can do this on higher-end ESC's as well but I don't think the 1060/1080 does it). The Flysky GT5 I believe has throttle Expo.
