Zonda cat kinetic racing throttle issue?

[asaint2be]

I recently ordered and received a Zonda cat RTR. Connected my batteries out of the water and gave it a fraction of throttle to test it. (Still frozen in Chicago). It powers on and the motors run for about 2-3 seconds then turn off. Again i am not over Reving out of water, just trying to make sure what I bought works. I tried a second set of batteries also with the same result. The props are spinning the right way and I tried connecting one battery to each side and then also cross connecting them. Same results both ways. Any ideas?

Have you calibrated your radio to the ESCs?

It was sold as rtr. Meaning it was bound already and came with the radio and receiver working/ bound. It allows me to repeatedly try the throttle but just turns off after 2-3 seconds.

what voltage are you plugging in? possibly the LVC is kicking in.

Contact Jan.

Thanks guys, I think this is totally on me. Lol. I read on kintec that this was a 4-5s boat, I assumed that meant total. I had 2x 2s. One 2s plugged into each side. When I plugged 2x4s in it works fine. I got confused since there are two escs and two motors. Thank you for your help.

Ps I did contact Jan but did not hear back.

That would do it. LVC was kicking in.

I love being right.
