just took my buggy out and all was well for about a minute until all the power went and it was coasting around as if i was running a flat nimh pack,

so i walked home and plugged it into my charger and it read 7.96v my charger takes it to 8.4v (is this correct ?) so if it was nearly fully charged whats gone wrong ?



I bought a used lipo off ebay and after a few runs it did exactly what yours did. I've tried to revive it but it looks like one of the 2 cells is goosed so I am going to bin it.

Did you get your lipo new? Is it possible it could have been discharged too much at some point? If it's fully charged and not performing it doesn't look good, hope I'm wrong!
