Default Hpi Blitz Flux

Hello,

I have put some 3s lipo batteries in the car and it started to move for about 10 seconds now when I press throttle the engine runs and the wheels go around very slowly, tried 3 different 3s batteries which are fully charged. Its second hand and the seller claimed it worked. Any ideas please?

I would first rebind the receiver, then run through the ESC throttle/brake calibration and then test it again.

Provided all the electronics are from the original Blitz Flux, you should be able to read through the first-run steps in the manual here...

I would read through that and perform all of the initial setup steps.

First off, the ESC may not be set-up for 3 cell. Previous owner may have only run 2 cell therefore ESC has to be re-programed for a higher low voltage cutoff. .

I also didnt get any connections for the transmitter as just had a look at the manual to try and reset it.

With the instructions shown above in post #4, go to page 11 on ESC set up. It should explain it all there.
