I've been having the exact same issue. There doesn't seem to be a noticable pattern to the outage either. Sometime it's after a 5 mins, sometimes it's after 1, I could have a hard landing and it'll happen, and another it'll just turn off at a low load point and coast to a stop. I don't loose steering, I've changed the receiver with brand new one and still the issue keeps happening. I was originally using a Pro4 4600, I replaced that with a Reedy 544 4800 trying to fix the issue and still nothing. The temp lights are 2-3, motor temps top out at 150.
