Both bad?
I've got a Bushwacker that I've recently converted over to the flaps version, and been trying to re-learn how to fly with the flaps.
Things go well for a time, but after about 2-3 minutes of flying, the power seems to drop off, and within another minute or so, the power is to the point where it cant keep the plane in the air.
I didn't think anything of it the first couple times, chalked it up to pilot error, but this last time, after retrieving my plane, I started the motor on my way back to the launch point, and after the couple minutes, the motor did lose power and kind of fluttered. Even at full throttle, the plane didn't seem to want to leave my hand.
I'm using a C pack (older style Emax) motor and 30 amp ESC on a 2200 mA 3S. The motor has seen quite a few crashes, starting out as my first learning plane the tractor versawing.
Any insight would be welcome, though I'll probably just start switching out components till it works again
