Well - I think I just jinxed myself in the other .5 thread. I said how cool everything was running and I would try gearing up. I did and I think I overdid it. I went up a tooth on the pinion to 13t (with the 46t kyosho spur) and put a 3S cell in which is the configuration that I ran the speed runs with. No problems with heat on the short speed bursts. However, this is not a good combination at the track. ESC did shut down on me after about 5 minutes of run time and motor was close to 200 :026:. I would like to keep the 3S and perhaps drop the gearing back down. I didn't have any other pinions with me at the time so I'll have to try again another day.
