Did you adjust the throttle trim or is that what you are calling the end points? I had a problem with the 120 doing the same thing and after I turned the throttle trim full clockwise and redid the throttle calibration it worked great for me.

Diesel your the man, worked a treat, had to turn back the throttle trim nob counter- clock wise on the tx and re-calibrated,still trying to work out this new Traxxas 2.4GHz tranny with its muti knob and all the rest of it....... I guess when all else fails read the instructions..LOL

Thanks for the welcome too...
