Default HobbyWing EZRun SC10/SC8 Problem?

I am running a HobbyWing EZRun SC10/SC8 ESC in an Associated SC10 4x4 with a HobbyWing 4000kv motor and a 2S battery. The truck runs fine for about 2 to 3 minutes then only has about half power for about 8 to 10 seconds and finally shuts off. Once you turn it back on, it will run fine again for less than a minute and repeat the problem. The ESC is only getting up to about 115 degrees. Motor is not hot either. Any ideas?

What batteries are you running? Make sure that you are getting a full charge, and what setting are you using on the speed-control?

Sounds like lipo cutoff. Definitely check your settings. Did you try another battery?

Try manually programming your esc to the number of cells your running. Let us know the outcome
