The fact that it starts better when you give it throttle slowly tells me the problem happens when current draw is high. 6000mah 25C should be enough to power either of those motors assuming it is in decent condition, so I would look to connections first. What kind of battery and motor connectors? Have you replaced any of them? Sorry if this has been covered, it sounds like you have posted something about this before but I am not familiar with it. Is this a problem that started all-of-a-sudden or did it start with all new components?
You were 100% correct... I used a stick pack just for the hell of it and it was fine.. charged the saddle pack and it was fine.. it was at 3.9v per cell which you would think was fine but it wasnt... checked the mmp settings and it was auto lipo cut off which is 3.0v default... not sure but THANKS EVERYONE for the help...
