I would use fixed end points. The instructions on setting them up are attached. Set it as outrunner mode and I would leave the brake off at first and go from there. After you get some flights on it you can start playing with the brake, but I wouldnt go more than 30% as you can start getting some weird noises coming back up on the power.

Interested in how your eflite 160 compares to other motors of the same size, the price sure is right at 150 bucks

The setup works quite well. Joseph won the NATS in Advanced with a Passport and E-flight 160.

Here is the throttle curve that I set up for this motor. This provides a nice linear feel for the motor. Also, you will notice an 80 percent limit on the throttle curve at full throttle. This is to keep the noise below 92 dB over grass (prop is the standard APC 21x13.5)

Best regards,
Don
