Hi Alex, I am also using M17 along with a sanwa Servo and non-sanwa ESC. Have been using SXR mode for the steering channel and it works great. But for the throttle channel, we have been struggling to choose the right mode, SUX didn't seem to work for the non-sanwa ESC (not sure if it's separate issue). Was wondering which sanwa mode do you use for your ESC? Thanks for all your great videos!
I have a question about EXP adjustments to steering and throttle. Is it a common practice to use any degree of throttle exp? I use about 3% exp for steering and I had about 13% for throttle with 13.5 blinky on asphalt. I'm now running open 13.5 and wanted to know if using throttle exp would affect the handling as boost and turbo is now being used. Just wanted an idea if using exp on throttle would increase motor heat and if it would be of any gain in open 13.5?
I don't personally, I prefer to adjust the throttle feel in the speedo if necessary. But I know that stock racers often use positive throttle expo to make the throttle band feel punchier, even in boosted. Yes, it will make the motor run slightly hotter since the throttle will be applied "exponentially earlier".
Hi. I have a problem with my sanwa m12s, when i turn the wheel fully to the left the telemetry display 100 but when i turn it full to the right it shows only 96. I don't know what cause it but do you know how to fix it?
Alexander Hagberg hi thank for the reply, the fs funtion is the fail-safe setting, locate in the setting menu, hope u can teach also on the “curve” setting too.as there is not much educational vid in youtube regarding this m17.appreciate it sir, happy racing sir. 👍🏻👌

My Hobbywing ESS works in SHR mode with my M12/RX482. For M17 its probably the same.
I use SHR for CH2 with my Hobbywing XR10 PRO G2 Esc.

@@hagberg thanks for the help. Great to get such advice from a pro. Really appreciate it.👍🏾👍🏾
Do you set all your end points and trim back to 100% prior to calibration?
I don't touch the end points prior to calibration.
do you have to do this for each model? I also run X-ray off road as well
No, but ideally every month, or if you've travelled with your radio where its been moved around a lot.
Hello Alexander,
Which receiver do you use and why? What are the differents..?
Thank you!
RX-482 or RX-491. The 491 has a faster response mode, but it comes with an external antenna, which makes it a bit trickier to mount in the car.
Since you change your radio each year, what happens to the discarded one?
I usually return them to my sponsor.
@@hagberg understood.

Have you tried to do the calibration as shown in the video?
@@hagberg oh ok. I never calibrate them i usually left them as is. is this normal btw?
Hi nice cool tips, can u do FS funtion.appreciate it sir
Hi, please elaborate on FS function. Which function is this? Thanks!
