I upgraded my ECX amp esc/receiver to a hobbywing 1060 esc and a spektrum reciever, I also just upgraded the battery from the standard 1800 mah 6 cell 7.2v Nimh to an 8.4v 3300 mah 7cell. It ran well until it landed in a thicker section of grass and wouldn't go more than a couple feet without stopping and needing a ‘bump’ to get it going again. When I turned my controller off and took the body off to take battery out there was a weird grinding noise that sounded like it was coming from the ESC. Is it possible landing in the grass stripped my gears or activated a voltage failsafe with the esc? It is a brand new battery about half charge on it before I started running it
