Anyone know why the throttle would cut out on my F-35? On startup, about half throttle the power cuts out completely. Every now and then if I throttle up REALLY slowly, I can get her to work properly.

Try another ESC, Gabe. That's about the only thing I can think of.

I think Sol has got it right. Had the same issue with the BR. I would start it up and all of a sudden nothing  . Checked all the connection and everything seemed to be good. Cut everything back on and then it started to act like an old V8 with a plug wire off. The whole heli would jerk around like it was misfiring. Changed the esc and poof in my case all better. Dave |

If you've eliminated a possible Tx throttlenglitch then I'd go with a problem with the ESC. If you can reprogram it you might try that. If you can't, or reprogramming doesn't work, you know what you need to do.

You mean reprogram the esc 19k
I hope that is what you mean cause if it is then it's a good thing I did not trash the esc I removed from the BR ;D That way I can reprogram it and still have an extra one.

I'd sure give reprogramming the ESC a shot. Seems to work more often than not if it isn't fried.
