What's being discussed in regards to the batteries is probably the issue. Lipos will solve it. Whats MOST LIKELY happening is, when you pull full throttle the ESC wants to suck a LOT of juice out of the batteries. The batteries you have can't handle that instant drain and so you get the esc stalling. If you ran lipos, they can handle that level of drain.

It's also why when you accelerate slowly, there's no issue. You're not allowing the esc to freely suck the batteries "dry".

This is a guess based on what you've typed. Not necessarily right though.
