Hello,
I have some drone experience but new to RC. I bought my kid a Granite 4x4 and we run it with 2s lipos.
We have been driving the car in snow and on icy grass. If we have the car on 100% power the car stops in about 3-5 minutes.
ESC light is blinking and only steering works. If we turn the car off/on it lets you drive again.
How do i know if it is Low voltage or heat cutoff? Should the car start working again if it is because of heat without turning the car off?
If the car has stopped and you turn the car off/on and continue driving with 75% it lets you drive quite long before stopping.
After the car had stopped with 75% i measured the battery voltage to be 7.6V. I usually drain my drone lipos around 3.4V/cell.
Thats quite high voltage for voltage cutoff (7.6V). That's close to 7.7V that i use for storage voltage for 2S lipos.
Do you think we have heat problem? The ESC and motor don't seem that hot after driving. And we have been driving in temperatures from 5celsius to -5celcius.
