EDFs are power hungry , they require a port of amps , check the C rating of your battery and see if they're​ compatible ?  If not , get a high Court rated battery

dear you got it all wrong.

first try to get a AMP meter and see how much Amps is drawn by your EDF.

EDF are inefficient so each one will draw about 30 Amps in 50-60% throttle,

So you are actually drawing 70-80A with 2 EDF on a 25C lipo. buddy you need atleast 50C for 2200mah

I had a 64mm, with 3200kv motor it used to draw about 45A on full throttle.
