Your controller is set to throttle proportional to current. It should probably be changed to a more curtis like behavior. That's super easy to do in software. See, it tries to see a certain amount of current if your throttle requests it. Like 50% throttle will mean the controller will try to get 50% of max current. You can change that behavior over the serial port really easily.
