you have an Amp meter? if so hook it up to your start box using your old batteries or some power source other than the lipo... now start you're buggie and see how many amps you draw... I'll bet it's WAY over the 44a max continous that 2200Mah lipos can produce

you simply need a bigger battery... how big will depened on the MAX load the starter box can demand.


Edit:

I did a little looking around and it seems that battery SHOULD be plenty...I figured a start box pulled ALOT more amps.

Check see if your start box motors are worn and check for any binding... I know your pulling to many amps from your battery... not sure why though.
