esc problems.

My hobbywing 150A will run maybe 20 seconds while under throttle, then stop and the light starts flashing red. It works fine after a quick off/on though. Any ideas? My pack is fully charged too.

It could be a number of things. Try unplugging the battery and cycling the power switch several times like a misbehaving computer. This may help clear the programming memory (like the CMOS on a computer) and try to plug everything back in and run it. You can also try to re-program the ESC.

I've done both of those things actually. Reset the esc back to stock twice too, ran it both ways, stock and after my programming.

Been searching around and it looks like its going into cutoff. I'll double check to see what the voltage cutoff is from the factory and maybe go down if its a little higher.

Bumped it down to 3v and set it to 5 cell instead of auto detect, fixed it. Rips.

I figured it was something simple, Lloyd. I just started at the top of the troubleshooting list.
