Also reminds me to reccomend switching your vx to solid motor mounts. The movement of the engine against and, pressing against the rubber bushing does delay throttle response.

This bushing flex is extremely noticeable in larger motors, and even in small motors the engine is effectively using power to rock itself fully against the maximum movement strength of the rubber bushing before putting power to the wheels
