Do you have it set for Lipo? Are your batteries charged? If they are not charged good it could be the lipo cut off shutting the ESC down to protect the batteries.....check those 2 things and let us know.....;)

runing a 3c on a 2c esc is not advised--you risk damaging your lipo

I ran the 2s goat on a losi 1650mah battery and was able to go 3 comps and practice on one charge with PLENTY of power!!! Make sure you are on the correct profile, or your custom profile is set for Lipo. Sounds like a problem with the ESC to me.

Check your profile settings. Have you ran a 3s lipo on it at any time? Do you have any picts of how you have everything wired up? Your battery is fine for it.

| And I'm sure there's did work fine with that battery, they were using the right "2s Lipo"! You didn't at first. You can call Novak but they won't cover your ESC if you used a 3s like you said you did at first.

I have a quick question, You run a 850 mah battery? I ask because I run (2) 3,700 mah batteries ( 7,400 mah total) in my Novak brushless crawler. Harry |
