Default T-Maxx Engine Dies When shifts 2nd gear

I am trying to fix a T-Maxx for a friend. When It starts to hit second gear the engine dies. If I left off the Throttle the engine fires back up and runs only till it tries to shift again. I inspected the transmission there are no burned up gears. I did tune the engine and adjust the shift timing and it did shift once without stalling. But once I slowed and tried to get it to shift again it died. And i couldn't get it to shift no matter how I tuned it. It seems like the engine is struggling to push it in second gear. The engine is brand new and should not be a problem. Any suggestions?
