My ESC turning off. At first seemingly randomly but I eventually found the pattern.

Basically my batteries got to a point where I could only engage about 50% boost (about 2/3 the pedal) and when I did my voltmeter would drop. Quick. I was hitting 18.0V while holding the pedal at about 2/3 throttle for a few seconds and when it dropped below 18V the ESC would disengage until I released the pedal and re-engaged it. If I tried to engage 100% boost at full throttle the ESC wouldn't even start.

Also, my voltmeter was reading 28.6 or 28.7 at idle. On the new batteries, I'm back to a consistent 28.3V
