A while back pl9171 was posting about using a 9.6v nimh 8 cell so I bought one and tried it out but I'm not having much luck. I charged the battery and it goes only for like 30 seconds before it cuts out with a flashing light on the esc. Did anyone ever have any issues like that? Steering still works but won't go. If I turn it off and on it does like this lurching kind of motion a few times before stopping again flashing. I'm wondering maybe if there is like an over voltage cutoff or something? Senton 4x4 mega brushed, latest one, red color, just bought this spring, all stock. Comes with 8.4v 7 cell, that one works fine still. I first bought a cheap 9.6v 5000mah Masione battery from ebay and I thought that was the problem, so I got a refund on that, and bought a 9.6v 5000mah Traxxas brand one, but same problem. The only other thing is both new batteries had a traxxas connector so I had to use a traxxas to deans adapter to hook it to the car, don't know if that would have any effect?
