RX8 truggy and buggy setups

[RC-Monster Mike]

Between the punch control, throttle curves and the Slipperential, power delivery can be infinately tuned to track conditions or user preference. I use minimal punch control just to "take the edge off" in racing - too much and it gets a "muddy" feel in the mid range. I use the throttle curve and expo on my radio to further tune the system power delivery, and adjust the Slipperential for traction control as needed(more slip on a loose track and very little slip in high traction). There is no track that can't be tamed with all the available tuning options. :)

I'm with ya on the throttle curve being a great tool, but rather than do it in the esc, I do it on my radio where I can make quicker changes and do it right from the stand in practice. Its just easier for me that way. I haven't messed with punch control on the RX8 yet cuz I always just ran full punch on my old system, but last week I certainly did utilize the slipperential to "tune" in the initial punch I wanted. I freakin love that thing. On the track I personally think it could be the single best tuning option for power delivery Ive seen yet.
