"I wouldn't go with a Novak. There are other LVC's that are much better."

Better how? I've never had a problem with mine. I've got the 4S version and use my Revo exclusively with lipos.

This sounds identical to the problem I had with my HV-MAXX 4.5 & Nomadio. Are you using their lipo saver by any chance? If yes, you need to go through lipo saver setup with it--fixed my problem. ...

No, the HV is my 1st & only brushless. It's almost too fast for the little track I'm currently going to. My only comparison point is the original Titans from my EMAXX--which is no comparison. ...

I noticed an improvement in both torque and lower temps (motor & ESC). I actually had to gear up to take advantage of the new performance--it feels like a motor with a lower KV, but YMMV.
