help with brushless electronics.
 
Just got my brushless buggy all together and my electronics are as follow.
2 2s lipos ran in series.
v3 mmm
and airtronics mx3 fhss.
Now my problem is one of the solders on the series connectors came off and i had to redo it, but wasn't a really good one.
Then i took it out to drive, and its running good but i get this stopping motion.
Like i give it throttle and slow down and then its like none of the electronics work steering or throttle and the car just puts for a couple inches then stops.
now i got full control of my steering and etc till it does it again.
The put is like something when a steering servo glitches or something but its with the motor and only goes a few feet then stops.
Is this like a bad battery connection or is it the speed controller.
Sorry thats really the best i can describe unless i make a vid of it.

try resoldering the joint if you think that's the problem. does the solder look shiny or dull and grey? you might have a cold solder joint. check the voltage at the series connector to see if you're getting the full 14.8v.

Checked it and it came out to 14.4v
The solder does look grey.

Check your low votage cutoff. You can either adjust it or charge the battery again.

well the weird thing was the batteries were charged when it happen but i charged both of them in series with no balancer.
SO im recharging them sepretly hopefully that will help.

ya, maybe check each battery. espeically if you didn't use a balancer.

snauty, sounds like your motor/esc connectors are loose, i directly soldered mine together, and i dont get this any more. good luck dude!

Is it re arming when it starts back up ? If so then its a loose joint somewhere on the battery side of the ESC or it could be the on/off switch is bad .

What is the LVC set at ? I wouldnt charge the batts in series either , just charge each one individually .
