Ran my Supervee on 2 consectutive ~7-10 minute runs this past weekend. Towards the end of the second run, the boat started acting up. At first the motor cut out and would not run at all when pulling the throttle. Then 20 seconds later when pulling the throttle it would beep three times like it was arming the ESC. Likewise it would beep 3 times again when pushing the throttle backwards, again like it was arming the ESC, but the motor would not run. Then all of a sudden the motor would run about 1/2 speed without pulling the throttle at all. Kind of dangerous as the boat could have just taken off across the lake. (Lake Tahoe is 20 miles long and 12 miles wide so that was a potential large problem) Then the motor stopped and then about 20 seconds later the throttle did work but only for a minute or so. All throughout this time the rudder was working fine which helped control the damn thing.
Using dual Nimh 5000Mah batteries with stock ESC and motor. Water flow on the cooling looked fine and nothing was really hot at all. Does anyone have any ideas on why the boat would act like this?
Any help on debug would be appreciated.
Thx,
Marc
