Hey guys, I'm new to the forum scene and I've only just got back into rc after a 20yr break so brushless/lipo is new to me. I recently purchased a kraton 4s and immediately made a good deal of upgrades. The first few runs were faultless but I took it to a bmx track this weekend and after 1 pack and 1 or 2 hits to the front end it started cutting out (almost like LVC) but everything was running reasonably cool. Battery status was all good at the time and I hadn't been running in water. As far as upgrades go I've swapped out the stx2 system and fitted the dumborc, jx EcoBoost servo, 3.8 badlands which were slightly smaller diameter than stock minokawa so I changed pinion from 13t to 15t to compensate. Ive also changed out the ec5 connectors for xt90. Everything else has been suspension related. I've cleaned and dried out any moisture and re-installed the original stx2 system. It doesn't seem as bad now but the problem is still there. Any ideas guys as I'm suspecting the esc but don't want to go down that road if I'm missing something simple. I'm a mechanic by trade and I've got all sorts running through my head at the moment, but I know there are a lot of people far more experienced than me at this so would really appreciate any input. Seems to happen either when I'm at full power or any shock to the chassis. Thanks in advance.
