Lloyd Burns is an unknown quantity at this point
The victors have always (and still do) have a zone (from 117 to 137) where no output to the motors is made. This allows the somewhat imprecise joystick to go to neutral position, where they may or may not put out 127, and still let the motor go off and not draw current.

You are probably confusing the 883 victors which were used in the past and which you got this year, too, with the very new 884, which you didn't get in the kit, but may have seen on the Ifirst website.

The 884's only difference with what has gone before is that the response to 138 is now a near zero output, whereas with the 883, the response is 10% output. For 883 and 884 alike 136 gives zero output. Same for going from 118 to 116.
