I have a question i have the arrma mega esc i use a 6 cell nimh and it keeps acting like it is loosing power on a fully charged battery the motor is a brushed 15 turn dynamite what could be the problem
 
What do you mean by 'losing power'? Is it all of the sudden, it drops to 25%? Or that after the first minute, it feels like it only had 90% or 80% the punch?

In the first case, verify that your LVC / lipo mode is off, and the ESC is in Nimh mode. For the second issue, yeah, that is normal for nimh. This is why we love Lipo, no voltage sag till the end of the run.
 
It is all of a sudden but if i turn it off and back on it works for about a minute and then lose of power
 
Sounds like LVC. Verify your jumpers on the ESC are in the correct location. Attached is a screen shot from the Mega 4x4 manual -
