Hi guys. So the issue I'm having is the esc is shutting down after about 3 minutes. If I turn it off then back on it is good to go again for another couple of minutes. There is no warning lights, incedently if the red led is always flashing how are you supposed to tell if it is a low voltage warning since the manual says the red led will flash for low voltage? The orange led does not flash for temp warning either. I have temped both motor and esc and they are both around 50*C. The battery is fully charged. When this happened I test the battery to check it and each cell was 3.95v.

Any suggestions? Rather frustrating when I can't even finish a race!

Cheers

Jason,

Try turning off the low voltage and temp feature.

thanks but i have already turned off the voltage cut off and the esc has not got close to the 95 degree cut off.

i got a response from speed passion today and they say it sounds like it could be changing to sensor less mode. i have another cable but not motor or esc so it is rather difficult to say if the esc or motor is at fault.

any thoughts on this?

cheers

so i checked the esc thermal cut-off and turned it off... and what do you know.... it now no longer shuts down!!! thanks for the tip nexus but the question i have is why was it shutting down when it was getting no where near the temp of 95 degrees? it was only 50 degrees
