Hello,

My scenario...

Duratrax - 835E
TrakPower 5600 Lipo - 5600 mAh 14.8 V 60C 83Wh 4s
Charger HiTec X1 Touch - Settings - 5600 mAh - 5.6V charge current - 2.0A discharge current

Scenario 1

New battery - 2 uses , charges 1 hour 13 minutes, completes at 3558 mAh
Run time 6 minutes full power until brief loss of connectivity to remote, runs another 8 minutes with connectivity, and then steadily loses range over the next 10 minutes, first at 25 feet, then 20, and then rapidly down to about 3 feet... and that's that.

At one point toward the very end of the battery life, it seemed as though the buggy also lurched forward, not entirely on its own, I did touch the trigger... but I didn't floor it, the buggy appeared to take off at full speed.

Is this due to the fact that the battery has only been charged twice? Am I in a situation where this is a normal break in period? Is it possible I messed up my charger settings?

Thanks so much,

Nick
