    Cutting out problem

    so in theory, the batteries aren't old. I believe the ESC is a stock one that can't be programmed, but i will open her up and check. how would you recommend i can diagnose the exact problem? would replacing the ESC fix it, or is there a chance that something more is wrong? Thanks
