HELP PLEASE mystic leo 3674

[rhengst22]

hey everyone i am in desperate need of some advice and help. i have a pro boat mystic 29 that i put a leopard 3674 2200kv motor in, also a hobbywing seaking 120amp esc, and a octura sharpened and balanced m445 prop and i am running it on 4S. so here is my problem...when im accelerating at about half throttle the boat is fine but as soon as i give it full throttle the boat majorly picks up power but only for a split second then the boat will only do the half throttle speed as if the power was suddenly cutout. why cant i hold full power without the boat cutting off to half power? please help

It is your Low voltage cutoff. Do you know where it is set at? I turn mine off,but you need to pay attention to time running then.Seaking are god aweful for this.

[rhengst22]

Why would my low voltage affect whether or not I have full power or not. The batteries are full and I have alarms that go off when my batteries are low. How do I turn the low voltage off?

[srislash]

The controller intentionally cuts power so that you will bring the boat in and save your lipo's. You have to go over the programming to turn it off. I have that info right here if you do not.Do you have the program box or going with beeps.

[rhengst22]

Do not have program box....have no info never programmed ESC before...any info would be greatly appreciated

Ok give me a few minutes and I'll see if the instr are online somewhere. If not I'll have to brief you.

Thanks a bunch...OK now that I am programming.....what should my timing be on this setup as well as my other setup...a impulse 31 Leo 4074 2200kv 6S m440?

[srislash]

We should know what the wind of the motor is.It will be either a D wind or a wye wind.5-7 for D and 11-15 for wye.That thing should move well.

That setup won't last long on 6s. Put a m445 prop on 4s and your impulse will run 50+ which is more than that hull likes.

[stadiumyamaha]

Also, check your packs to make sure one doesn't have a bad cell causing the lv to cut in.

[srislash]

Aw crap I didn't see that 6s.I don't even do that.

[srislash]

I see a 2150kv that is 2Y wind.I run my Castle 2200kv on 4s and an occasional 5s run.M445 or M645 prop.

More than likely bad batteries. The LVC cut off limits the power becuase as you accellerate and put a heavy load on your batteries the voltage drops too low and LVC cuts in. Get some new batteries. Run 4S 2p 3000mah. I've had better luck with paralell than series

I run the castles on 4s as well.
