            Could you explain something about the LVC?
            I've been using the Seaking 180A ESC on 5S with external BEC from a couple of month and I have the feeling that my ESC cut the power at 50% (LVC) above of 3.2V as programmed.

              At 3.2 volts it was cutting in to early , i have found setting it at 2.8 volts on my high draw set ups my batteries were coming back with a 1000 mah left in them , i have read a lot of people have been turning off the LVC to over come this issue , or you can run a external LVC .
