If your batteries are low it will cut off at a certain voltage, if you get a high temp on the esc it will do the same. You can check the settings on it through the manual or a hobbywing programming card. Make sure your batteries are fully charged and buy a cheap temp gun to check temps on your esc. did you gear the truck up?

Sounds to me like it's going into thermal shutdown as LVC will still allow the truck to move but at like 25%. Where as thermal stops the truck besides the steering. I'd check that your ESC fan is working and make sure to check your temp and maybe take a break after 7-8 minutes and let everything cool down then go back to it

Hi it was all set up buy the shop I got it from , I will have to check with them to confirm this and as it’s all new to me I was not aware about needing heat gun or a programming card so this is something I will have to see about getting , so glad you have told me about this

Hi thanks for your advice I will talk to the shop about this issue , when I first got it , it never did this at all , so was very confused to why it suddenly started to do this but seems like I have a lot to learn about this and so grateful for your input

Hi thanks for your advice , my HS thinks it’s the battery’s need balancing so going to try a programmer first to see if this works but will have a look at Kevin Talbot aswell to get some more input
