Most likely it is your battery. Checking the battery with a meter can give false info. The meter will only tell you voltage and not capacity. Trying a second battery would be an easy test. For the xtreme motors I would recommend a high c rated battery such as the DN Power 15c 850 mah. With this battery you will have good run times and you can feel the extra power from the higher 15c rating.
