I was racing 1/12th over the weekend, 19t Reedy Quad on Saturday and Reedy 12x1 on Sunday. The car was going soft at about 6 minutes, it was more noticeable in 19t as I then had to basically use full throttle round the whole track to keep momentum up. On Sunday it wasn't quite as noticeable but still lacked punch around the 6 minute mark and my times were about 2 seconds slower for the last few laps. My cells are GP3700 which are about 10 months old now, on Saturday I had 1000ma left in them and on Sunday I had around 600ma left discharging at 20A. So it doesn't seem to be a case of cell capacity but is it just that my cells are worn out now and thats why it's going soft? Motors were not getting hot either, just warm.
