DRAG BRAKES V60

Is it possible to have the speedmaster v60 have some sort of drag brake setting?

Raced last night on circuit, low grip, had to turn the grunt down with expo on the tranny to stop the tail spinning out on the straights. Needed some drag brake to get the nose of the car to turn in tighter. I'm useless using ordinary braking as the V60 will stop me on a sixpence [ 2 1/2 p to the youngsters!]

Cheers Dave

Stox will have an answer on this one I would have thought

To gain drag brake,

You need to knock your throttle trim backwards untill the v60 light goes into a dim orange and the more drag break you have the brighter the orange will be.

too much and youll be into reverse!

Nice info Nick

Brilliant,
I have trouble with the Caterhams turning inside me at our club on a very narrow twisty track. This info will help a lot . We've gone back to the Mardave tin can motors and I missed that little bit of drag I could programme in on the Fusion 13.5 esc combo.

Caterhams can corner alot quicker than the v12's due to the wheelbase its not much but still makes a diffrence.

I know, they give me grief sometimes, but, I found the drag brake makes me more competitive...................that and some good NiMhs!!

We race on carpet that is low grip at the begining of the evening and improves later. No additive is allowed. Initially the rear of the car is prone to spin out even on the straight.......again the Caterhams have less trouble with this.
