Hey, that's how I test 9v batteries. Do you know what 9Vdc taste like? Those vxl esc's are knowed to have a touchy Lvc and limp lipos can't help.

I think your esc is acting messed up not recognizing your tounge tested Nimh:). Buy a lva off of eBay for 4$ or from maxamps for 20. Then run it on nimh mode (red led) instead of lipo mode on the esc with the lva installed.

Lva=low volt alarm
