Overcurrent fault when braking

Is there any way to adjust the PID of braking?

When I lift off (full brake) while at around 20% speed, I often get an ABS max current fault. I am testing this on the bench with a mass attached to the motor shaft to provide some inertia.

PPM input, Duty Cycle, 12S, Trampa VESC 6 MKV, fw 5.03 and 6.00.

I tried 5.02 and it does not have this problem.

I tried adjusting Motor Current Max Brake and Battery Current Max Regen, but no change.

At which current do you get this fault?

Max current is set to 150 Amps, so the fault is just over -150 Amps.

You can see it usually adjusting the duty cycle to maintain the braking current at 65 Amps, but every so often it gets it wrong.
