and then there's the LVC...what a POS!!
you get a lipo and punch the throttle, the voltage drops just a little and BAM! it's in half power mode[:@][:@][:@]
sometimes when going very slow with my 3s 8000mah lipo it'll go to total couoff from hte LCV mode[:@]

Dude it's your battery, same thing happened to my MaxAmps 6000. When it was new it was sweet but now when I punch it does the same thing yours does. I thought it was my ESC as well till I got a new battery and now no cut off. Sad fact is Lipo's just go down hill after a while. It sucks when expensive batteries start failing but I have been running mine for over a year now with lots of cycles on it. I still run it, I just turn off the LVC and only run it for 15min. It doesn't get hot or bloat and when I put it on the charger each cell still has 3.7 to 3.8v so I don't think i'm in to much danger doing like that.
