Default FX-R voltage cutoff question

I used my new fxr today and using a 1800 lipo and with the cutoff set on to the 2s setting (6v) and only got around 15min use before the cutoff works. Was the same with the other fully charged batteries i tried. Surely this isn't right. Am i best to get the PC interface system to slightly lower the voltage cutoff?

That's strange, I never had a problem with my FXR. Are you lipo getting full charged? And what servo(s) and rx are you using? but don't lower the cutoff, 6v is recommend to keep the health of your lipo.

What kind of charger are you using? If it shows you how many mAh your pack takes during a charge, see if it takes about 1800 for a full charge. If it does, then you know it's full and the FXR won't activate the cutoff until it sees the 6V.

15 minutes actually sounds about right, I run a 3400 in my crawler and mobbing on it I generally get a little over 30-35 minutes.
