New to electric, Only getting an average of 9 minutes out of my 2s 5200 lipo. I have a Senton brushed stock. Also there is an adapter from the deans lipo connector to the ic3 on the ECS. anything I can do to extend my run time or is that the average?
 
Get rid of the adapter. Change both sides to EC3/IC3. Deans are known to be problematic.
 
Have you checked your lipo cell voltage after it it cuts out? It might help to narrow it down if it's a battery issue or something else, like shut off due to overheating.
 
Im assuming you have the mega brushed model. There is a little switch on your esc, make sure its moved over to Li-po position I think its set on Ni-mh out of the box.

How do you check individual cell voltages. I have a multimeter but I check total voltage. Wasn’t hot or anything.

I made sure I switched the jumper.
I run XT90s on everything 6s and under.
Thanks.
 
Is there a better option than ec3/ic3
Yes there are but you won’t see a difference. EC5 and XT90 are pretty standard and decent connectors. EC3 and XT60 are fine too for a small RC
 
I have a voltage tester that connects to the balance plug for quick checks. Also able to check once you connect to a balance charger.
