I just got the volcano epx pro. Charged the battery (8 hours) programmed the esc and toke it out. When I hit the gas full throttle it cuts in and out. I think that it's the battery or the escbut don't really know any help would be great. Thanks to all

hi,
just posted an answer on your other thread.

could be a defective battery. do you have another model to test it with? or another charger to charge it with?

russellsprout

Don't have another battery but tried another charger

Okay, hmmm...

Is this a brushless truck?
Were you using a NIMH battery?

russellsprout

yes it is brushless. I'm using NIMH battery now because that's what came with it. Only had it for about two days. My first electronic I have always had gas.

II asked about the being brushless and having a nimh battery because I had a similiar issue last year with an rc. I got an Exceed RCRally Monster, the brushless edition, which also shipped with an included nimh battery. I charged it once the truck was unboxed. I then took it for a test run and it did the same. I later found out that the truck (esc) was pre-programmed for lipo mode)

Hope this helps, perhaps nitrosportsandrunner can help you with programming the esc if thats the case.

Mmm. Thanks for the help.:-)
