E-Flite Power System...Motor Sputter Prob.
I have an E-Flite Super Airliner setup with two EFD400 motors on two E-Flite 25pro ESC. My battery power is two ZIPPY 20C 2200mah batts. My problem is when I run up the motors to about 80% throttle, one of the motors will suddenly start to cut off and back on quickly... as if an engine sputter. I then give full power and it continues to run smooth again. This only happens in the 80 to 85% throttle range and only on the one motor. What do I need to look at for this problem?

RE: E-Flite Power System...Motor Sputter Prob.
What you have described sounds like there may be a poor solder connection between your ESC and motor. You will probably have to pull back the heat shrink and look for any dull solder joints. Good solder connection have a shine to them. Hope this helps.
