Hello
I have a question for anyone who has a trx4
Why wouldn’t I be able to shut off the esc like normal when it goes into low voltage detection?
This is only the second time I’ve run it to this point and the first time it shut down just fine.
I’m able to just unplug the battery and plug it back in which will turn the light green and it’ll then shut off like normal. But when it goes back to low voltage detection it won’t shut off unless I unplug the battery again. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks
 
Safety feature the Traxxas escs have most likely. They want you to unplug the battery when it's at LVC and can't leave it plugged in because it will drain the battery down more even if you just turn it off and leave it plugged in.

That makes a lot of since honestly.
Thank you so much!

@DavidB1126 is correct, I have to unplug the battery to get it to shut off
