We will experiment with 13 pinions this weekend to see how much of a difference that makes, but still "over geared -> cool motor" doesn't fit very well for us. I really don't think that his rtr with 16/46 is under geared? Do you?
I ran a 13T/51T and the motor got pretty hot and that is a 3.9:1 ratio. Now with the 17T/51 it will be a 3:1 ratio. This to me will make everything run hotter right? Let me know how the 13T/46T (3.5:1 ratio) turns out.
