Proline SCT Street fighters
Rips great for about 6 minutes and then drops to what feels like 70% power for the next 12-15 minutes after 3.6v and before LVC which is set to 3.2 "auto lipo".
Does the exact same thing with both new identical batteries.
Should I have bought a lower KV motor?
am I missing a setting on the ESC?
Do these batteries just suck?
I have a handful of cars and trucks and this has never been this noticable so early in the run.
Thanks all!
during those 12-15 minutes, will it have spurts where it feels like it's 100% or is at that 70% power level for that entire time? the reason i ask is that if that full power feeling comes and goes during that time, it's probably voltage sag and the esc is going in and out of LVC. if that's the case, i'd just lower LVC to 3.0v.
