Low voltage cutoff issue..
 
Im running a speed passion reventon pro esc combined with a reedy sonic 10.5 motor. Battery is a 5 run old speedzone 2s 5000mah 50c.

I have the LVC in the esc set to 3.4 vps. Im running a fully charged packed today and it cutoff very early compared to what I am used to. I hooked the battery into my charger and both cells were still at 3.6vps.

What would cause a premature cutoff like that? I then lowered my lvc cutoff to 3.2vps and it lasted about 1 minute longer and still cut out at 3.59 vps.

Any ideas? Bad battery? Esc issue?

Thank you

It may be dead and the batt is reading the resting voltage, but under load it gets to the lvc

I run voltage cut at 3.0v/cell myself but it sounds like the battery is pretty weak and not holding up at all under load.

Yeah, it may have a weak cell!
