well, my guess is that your engine is overheating. when it overheat, it doesn't fire at right time(kinda likecar engine start to ping) and lose power, this may be due to your gearing is wrong. most of .15 motors (car one) are high rpm low torque motor. this could cause overheating.

Running too lean, fuel with improper oil content, pitch too low, etc.
We need details!
