Hi all. Fairly new to the hobby and just built and flew the FT Simple Cub. It worked and flew great a couple days ago, but when I went to fly it today I got it in the air and the rpms suddenly dropped as if the battery was running low. Didnt have enough power to keep it up and ended up putting it down in a bank of snow. I recharged the battery to try it again, but now when I increase the throttle the motor suddenly cuts out right around half throttle. Any ideas on what could be wrong? Brand new 1800 mAH 3s Tattu battery, with a 30 A ESC and 1200 kv brushless motor. I don't see or smell any smoke from the ESC or anything when I try to run it. The battery isn't puffy or anything. All the wires seem to be fine, and all the servos seem to be working just fine. I did get some snow in it from the flight a couple days ago. Could it be water damage?
