Ok, i've looked and searched to see if someone else has experienced this.
I followed Vedder's tutorial step-by-step. While i did have and issue building the newest firmware and connecting the programmer... I successfully built/launched the BLDC tool in Ubuntu. Got the VESC connected, but once in the settings for throttle range (reading from Transmitter) - mine is off 21%. So no input reads as 71%, and full brake reads as 21%. So once i enabled and tested, the motor spins up as 71% throttle and i have to partially hold brakes to get to 50% (no motor engagement). I was using a Wiiceiver and Kama. I swapped to another Wiiceiver and Memorex nunchuck - same settings and issue.
I will pull my Quantum TX/RX and test with that next. Is there a calibration to reset the centerpoint of throttle i missed within BLDC tool? I tried the "hold c button for 5 seconds" (if i remember calibration correctly).
Likely user error - thanks for any help!
