    hi alex, I want to know if for a track with many closely tight corners, it is more common to choose just lift a little bit throttle to slow down before turning, instead of frequent braking. For example, on the demonstrated track, apart from the longest straight, In most of chicanes and sweepers did u just use lifting the throttle a little and utilizing the efffect of drag brakes to achieve deceleration? Thanks so much

    I don't get it. Lipos should NEVER get discharged to 3.3volts a cell. Lipo is considered empty at 3.7v/cell. Period. That's a sure way to kill your batteries! I've discharged my brand new Pulse 5500mAh batteries in my jet to 3.3volts a cell because I wasn't paying attention. Two weeks later I went to fly again and after I landed the battery was at around 3.7v/cell but it was all puffed! Why are you not talking about C ratings and capacity? Some noob is going to watch this and will try to discharge a low C rating lipo 40amps and it'll catch fire.

    Hi Alex! Question here. After trying out your brake settings (both esc and radio) for my stock carpet races, I find it difficult to have a smooth entry on the corner as end up almost stopping fully. I tend to use a either a lot less EPA or a much higher brake frequency instead. Do you think that this hinders my lap times and I should instead just force myself to learn driving with such a strong brake? Or is this something that just suits one's driving style?

      I usually use Hot Race thin CA tire glue or AKA tire glue. Both will work well and will last several runs without the need for re-gluing. The glue won't last forever, but you should not need to re-glue that often. Every 5 runs or so!

But, if your main goal is to try and reduce/delay the ring of death, try looking into the following solutions: Lower roll center Softer springs and/or shock oil Less camber gain, especially in front Less static camber More chassis flex Less aggressive tire additive (more oil content) Less tire warming Shorter additive timing
