Then it must be something else. I had been using my truggy for a while using that setup with no issues (temps ok). Then a few weeks ago I was running the truck and it just stopped. I checked and everything was really hot, so hot the power leads unsoldered from the ESC and the shrink wrap melted off parts of the battery. At first I thought the TrueRC couldn't handle the amp draw and over heated, because after I re-soldered the ESC I used a Maxamp 4s2p lipo and it worked fine. I have since used the TrueRC pack and it to seems to be working ok, so I don't know what caused those high temps that one particular day. Thanks for the feedback.
