However, about 15 minutes into playing, the pinion grub screw fell out so I guess I have to use a little more locktite. :)

The motor and ESC were kinda warm for my liking though. But maybe it was because the pinion was too loose and the motor was spinning too fast relatively unloaded. It's GOTTA be something like that because the Jato runs cool as a cucumber and it's geared higher.

Overall, I'm pretty happy with the results and it'll be fun to play with this summer. :)













So brian are you saying you have a screw loose ?:eek: .
