Hello all. I asked this question in another thread, but no reponses, I thought I would try here. The first week I was running this ESC, it seemed to work fine for about 4 minutes. It would start to cog out, and die at different points. We thought it might have been motor problems. Temped okay, but I went from 7.57 to 8.29 FDR just to be safe. It was suggested to me to try another capaciter on the ESC and get a glitch buster on the ESC......At this point, I am pretty sure it is not the motor... We are pretty sure it is the RS Pro now. After a lap or two, sometimes even shorter, it starts to cut out above half throttle, and make that cogging sound. Here is a list of what we tried this weekend.
1. Both stock and murfdogg caps.
2. 3 different sensor cables.
3. 2 different Tekin 5.5 (mine is gen 2, and the other we tried was a gen 1)
4. 2 different receivers.
5. Glitch buster on receiver.

Radio Equipment.
Airtronics MT4
Hitec 7965mg

I am thinking that my 2 week old RS Pro is a lemon.

Thoughts?
