yeah it can be a bit confusing.
Simply, if you set up your ESC end points when your tx throttle end points are set to 100%, you will get full power when you give it full stick. if you then increased your tx end point to say 110%, you wont get any more output, as the esc is still giving full power. you will just reach full power before you get to the end of the stick and have a bit of a full power dead zone at the top.
If you set up your esc when you set your transmitter to 150%. you will still get full power when you give it full stick.
I always set 100% on the tx. My rationale for this is that using the 150%, you are going to the extreme ends of the PWM duty cycle (the signal out of the receiver), whilst i am sure most ESCs will interpret that with no problems, its just better not to push the limits, as you don't get a performance improvement, just a wider spread on the PWM signal.
As previous posts have pointed out, its slightly different for servos, is that you don't have a way of setting up the end points on the servo itself, so you can only do it on the transmitter.
