I posted here a few months ago about my lipos not packing a punch in the beginning of a run, but after 10 minutes my truck is fine. Some of you warned me that lipos sold on Amazon can be hit or miss in quality. I decided to buy a decent 3s 90c 5000 mah lipo from SMC. It was a night and day difference from the other lipos I had...until yesterday. It started doing the same thing as the others. No punch for 10ish minutes then it woke up for the rest of the run.
Here are my charging habits. I ALWAYS balance charge my batteries. I charge at a 1C charge rate. I charge up to 4.2 volts. If I'm not going to use them for a week I leave them charged around 3.6-3.8 volts. Is there anything I'm missing? Or is it something with my truck?
