I was running my truck today on some new Hobby Star 8000mah 3s 100c batteries. I typically run Hobby Star 5200mah 3s 45c batteries. Today the truck just stopped and would not go. The fan was running and I felt like it was way to soon for the LVC to be kicking in. I shut the truck off for a second and turned it back on and off she went. Then it cut out again so once again I turned it off and on again and off she went. I was able to do this 4 times then finally I just brought the truck in so I could jump on the forums and get some clarity.
I really don't think it was temperature but, I will check tomorrow with a temperature gun. It could be LVC but wouldn't the truck refuse to run if not after the first reset but after the second third or fourth??? I mean at the point the voltage should be so low the truck instantly just cuts power upon powering up. I wish there were some damn indicator lights telling me what it's doing, LVC or Temperature or Fault. I don't think there is too much rolling resistance all of the wheels spin nicely and the mesh seems to be about right but maybe it's to tight???? I realize that I can see if the mesh is to tight by using a temp gun which I will do tomorrow.
I am just wondering if anybody has had a similar experience or if with the little information I was able to provide shed some light on this.
