Your batteries, if they are LiPOs and they were stored over the winter, could be simply losing their punch.

LiPO's as they age, increase internal resistance, which effectively decreases the C-rate. When they are stored fully charge, this is

If you store your LiPOs at around 3.75-3.85 volts per cell, this is the best level to store your packs.
