you really think it'd melt the motor chilled? when i first got into brushless, i was anything but on the conservative side.. hacker b50 8s on 16 cells, lehner basic 5300 on 12 cells.. 2x basic 5300's on 24 cells.. lol another option is simply limiting the epa.. and the parts are cheap to replace, as long as i protect the batt, controller and motor, i'll be happy. i figure its time i start getting video that people will enjoy watching again :) i think of it as a sub-hobby lol.

oh, and cart, my motor's 3345kv. it's written in pen on a label on the endbell. i forget where i bought it from, but i remember being told it wasn't a "regular" 540c-9l.
