ONYX RCR Throttle Curve

So you cranked up your controller for more speed and snappier takeoffs-but now your range kinda sucks. No worries, there’s an easy fix: tweak your throttle map.

The stock RCR throttle map uses a log curve, which throws down a ton of torque right away. Fun? Yes. Efficient? Not so much. It eats up your battery fast and gives you less torque at higher speeds.

Now flip that-set your throttle map to an exponential curve. You’ll get smoother power at low speeds and a nice punch when you twist it hard, especially between 30 and 60 mph.

Why does that help? With an expo curve, you can ease into acceleration when you need to save power (great for city traffic), but still rip when you want to. It also makes the throttle feel more precise in the lower range, so you’ve got better control and more efficient riding without losing any of the fun.

If you’re like me and live in Sport Mode, this little trick can go a long way-fewer cutouts, longer rides, and full torque on tap whenever you want it.

Controller Settings

  • Stock throttle curve / TPS Forw MAP: 30

  • Logarithmic throttle curve / TPS Forw MAP: 30

  • Linear throttle curve / TPS Forw MAP:: 50

  • Exponential curves / TPS Forw MAP: 70

Wanna feel the difference? Set your throttle map to 70 and take it for a spin. Cruise around slow in Sport Mode, rip a few pulls from 25 mph, then smash the throttle from a dead stop. You’ll notice the change right away-it’s a whole new vibe.
