I have the Wattage G-202E ARF, which comes with a Wattage supper 400 cobalt 27 T motor. I am running it with an Astro Flight 215D speed controller hooked up to an 8 volt 1300 mah battery. Batter is fully charged and verified at 8.4 volts.

My problem is that the engine cuts out completely at various throttle settings, most of which are below half throttle. Sometimes it cuts out as I throttle up, and sometimes it cuts out at a fixed throttle point. But it ALWAYS cuts out. Then to start it back up, I have to minimize throttle and then throttle back up again. I have not flow it and it this point there is no way that I can get it off the ground.

The other controls (servers) appear to be working just fine.

Using the probes of my digital volt meter, at idle, I can see the voltage, after motor cuts out, the voltage is zero. I do not know if that is a function of the speed controller or the engine.

Please, anyone, offer me your advise.

Thanks
Dan
