did you check your settings in the esc .light is red.turn on hold button change color blink once let go my stampede does this

i checked the voltage and on a full charge it was only like 5.5 volts or something like that, i called traxxas and told them about what was going on and they told me that they had a bad lot of them so they sent me a new battery

cool man....my original 1200 traxxas batteries seemed to go downhill real fast..so maybe i'll check mine again....

[revo_rob_1984]

hey they sent me a new battery and if you got a battery from the same lot i would imagine that they would send you one too

to be honest i don't care too much..i have 4 LiPo's that keep me running for a long time..the NiMh batteries i have are just an afterthought now in case i go out and run for like 2 hours straight

i like the lipos in mine i think most rc drivers are use to nitro and 75% of the time can just punch it it does take some gettin use to

I LOVE the lipo
