I was running that motor with the Copperhead R system and after a few packs of runtime and monitoring temps(always motor temps 130-145) when you power on the esc it would take forever to get the throttle to work. The steering would work instantly but now when you put a fresh pack in and power it on it takes about 5-6 trigger pulls before you get any throttle. I have hooked up the progauge and double checked everything and re calibrated it to the radio and still didn't take care of it. I checked over all the wiring and even installed a new Tenshock 4600kv motor instead of the Viper and it still happens.

Do I need to worry about the lag before it powers the motor or send the esc in for it to be looked at? Also what is the standard cost for a look over or replacement for the copperhead R esc?

thanks,
Matt
