Default Lipo run away??

Hey guys,


Looking for some help.Today i ran my lipo and regulator for the first time, the lipo is a vxr 2300 and the regulator is also a vxr.In my first race it was all good til about the 4 minute mark then my car had a runaway.

Came back to the pits and there is no response, then i dissconnected and reconnected the battery and it was all fine.

Now the battery was fully charged

The lipo regulator is INSIDE the radio box

I do not run a switch

I run spektrum pro reciever and a module in my JR Z-1

hopefully thats all the info needed for someone to tell what i am doing wrong.I have a few ideas about what happened, namely the regulator over heating but im not 100% positive

Thanks guys.
