Well I went out and tested it again. This time I used my friend super high powered 3000mah Radio Shack battery. I know it a big jump, but I figured the Plett could handle it. With the Tyco battery I had a 15t pinion on it. For the Radio Shack battery I threw on a 20t pinion. I took it out in the street and did some "speed" runs for about 10 mins until my pinion loosened. I brought it in and the motor and esc were both warm, but not too hot to hold my hand on. Man this sucks running crap batteries - anyone want to donate to "The Mailman needs a Lipo" fund?
