Default Scx10 problems(cutting out)

I bought a new RTR scx10 honcho, I love it by all means . Bt I've have some trouble with it cutting out . With a fulling charged 7.2 Nimh battery it cuts out alot. Mostly when it's under a load like trying to climb or if I go from forward to reverse to fast, I'm not sure if this a actually problem with it or if its a low battery etc. the battery is new less then a month old , and not only does it with one battery but all 6 that I have .. Any help? Tips? Ideas?.

Side note , not sure if this could be it but I did some waterproofing using the ballon method recommended by axial. Not sure if it a heat issue with the ecs.
Other than under a load it runs strong just when I try to take off fast . It's almost like I have to ease into the throttle..

Ad I have replaced battery in remote with new lithium batteries thinking that maybe the problem as well.. No change.
Thanks in advance..

Make sure the LVC for lipos is turned off. When you dump the throttle it could trip the LVC if it's on.

My dad had the same problem with his wraith. It is most likely your low voltage cut off. The come from the factory programmed for lipo. When you get on it hard with a nimh they cut out.

Look here,

and here.

That will get you to program the ESC without a Castle Link. But we/I still recommend getting one.
