Ok, to beat a dead horse, here's my question: My friend is running a mean machine with a Nue 1515/1Y, CC240LV, M440,2-2S in series (4S 5,000MAh, 25C total) When he first ran his setup, he blew the caps right off the ESC. He got a new one back from Castle, and now his boat runs for a minute or two, shuts down, then starts up, then shuts down (LVC is set at 12V)...when he called Castle, they keep telling him that he needs at least 10,000MAh...Now I'm no rocket scientist, but I can tell you that I am running the exact same setup in a UL-1 with a M445 and I get 4 times the run and no stutter or shutdown on the same batteries with never any problem! So what could be wrong? Should I advise him to get 2-4S 5,000MaH and run them in parrallel? I know that he's not over-propped (I've actually used a M647 on mine, but it drops the RPM's down too much and I knew that it was pushing it), but I kind of am at a loss as what to advise him, especially when castle is telling him he needs at least 10,000MaH....Any of you gurus got any sound advise or feedback? I don't want him to get to frustrated, plus I want the UL-1 to kick the MM butt when he finally gets this thing dialed in...Thanks to all !.....Norm
