Default 4pl glitch

This is on a wraith I just installed a cc bec everything works like it should when I go from stop to full throttle it sputters and the receiver goes from green to red to green to red but if I roll into it it does fine. Any ideas

What mah & "C" rating is your pack?
Did it do this before you added the CC BEC?

What mah & "C" rating is your pack?
What radio do you have?
What ESC?
Is your RX near the ESC or the BEC?

There have been some issues with a couple of ESC's & CC BEC's, I believe the RS running firmware V2.12 is one.

Most packs will have a series of numbers on them, my 2.2 comp packs are:

3S 1350mah 45C

The 3S = # of cells
The 1350 = mah capacity (how long it will run)
The 45C = how fast the power can come out of the pack

You could try recalibrating the ESC to the RX, otherwise I'm stumped for now.

Good idea, but I would remove it from the RX connector and tape it off.
