Motor Speed Problem

So I have the board up and running and the configurator returning good values. The transmitter also appears to be sending a good signal. The problem is that whenever I turn the throttle up on all 4 motors, 2 will always lose power very slowly. This is reflected in the configurator as well.

 

I began by testing the ESC's and power distribution. I plugged them all into a parallax board and ran them through tests running 1, 2, 3, and 4 motors at a time full power, no problems. I have tried disarming and re-arming multiple times as well with no change in results. Reloading all code and EEPROM has no effect as well. 

 

The configurator version is v1.1, using the ArducopterPiratesNG code.

 

Thanks for any help.
