Hi newbie here, just build a new car and when I power it on the motor wants to run for about a second than stops and everything functions like normal. I have bound the controller to it a few times. Messed with the trim but so far everything I have looked at didn’t fix it. Any ideas please and thank you!!!
 
What type of battery are you running? The default settings are for LiPo batteries. You will have only a few seconds of run time on NiMH with the low-voltage cutoff turned on, so you need to disable it with a programming card, LCD program box, or the Hobbywing WiFi module.
 
It is a 2s LiPo. The charge was at 8.36 to 8.42 on all the packs ran.
 
A bit more information might help, what motor and speed controller are you trying to use and which radio system.
