Yesterday I ran the Traxxas VXL-3S and the results were not good. My set up is:

Mr.C's MBX5T electric conversion
Airtronics MX-3
Airtronics 92836 receiver
Rx pack
Hitec HS-945MG servo
2 2200mAh 11.1V (Parallel 4400mAh testing this while waiting for the 5000mAh packs)
3656 size motor 2600kV
51T spur
15T pinion
NOTE: Almost all ESC will have reverse disabled accept the Actronic and the Schulze's.

The VXL-3S didn't seem to start as good as it did while in the air. On the ground, it cogged really bad. I had to give a little push for it to get going. When I got home, I opened the ESC just to see if there was anything wrong. Found one of the MOSFET was at the point of burning. The VXL-3S had a fan installed and it was cool after the 3mins or so before it stopped. Next I will run the MM with the same set up to see if I can get a different result.
