Battery too powerful?

[Crush42]

Just bought an M14 combat master and hooked up a badass lipo, but it causes the motor to spit a flash out e every time and sometimes some Sparks also. it fires a few bullets then stops shooting or even trying,any idea how to fix it?

Thanks!

Could be the fuse getting red hot but not blowing.

What lipo did you get?

But There is no fuse, it's a Venom 5000mah 35c 11.1v.

Try a lower battery, I put a 11v I'm my ICS SiG it fired burst , single, full auto on semi and full just stayed as it was, crapped myself as I'd just brought it, put in a7.4 lipo fired fine, then a 9v worked ok,
