Sudden drop in speed after releasing throttle in FW mode

Hi guys, I am using the vesc 75/300 with my sur ron build. When setting field weakening above 80amps the top speed is significantly increased compared to below 80a but the speed is not stable and fluctuates + - 3mph as well as sudden full braking when rolling off the throttle at top speed. This issue does not happen below 80a of field weakening but the top speed increase is not substantial. 

Is there any related settings to smooth out the field weakening power that I can experiment with? 

Thanks

80a is a lot! Try to lower the value.

With 60a I can receive a 5mph increase in top speed. with 80amp it becomes a total 13mph increase which an ideal increase that i don't wish to go higher but the above issues begin to happen.
