Default RE: Extreme Flight Vanquish 2m Build Thread

I have an idle up which I activate before take-off. This usually stays on throughout most of the Sportsman sequence. Sometimes I activate the esc brake with idle down and throttle off, if I need to slow a downline. Idle down and esc brake are most useful to me for landings if the approach is steep or fast on final (or unfavorable winds). Nice to have on a switch if needed, and fine to leave off for most downlines, I guess it depends on what schedule you are flying and prop choice. The brake is 25% btw and the Himax motor comes with some recommendations about esc settings too.
