That's not a bad place to be IMO. So are you going to go with the Wye termination?
What truck are you planning on going with? The Revo?
I just did another run "test".
4S 10,000mah Lipo yields 52 minutes of pretty hard runtime.
40 minutes into the run, I thermaled the ESC again. This wasn't showing up with the lower capacity batteries. I think this Revo will be getting a Monster Pro for Christmas.
Maybe do a small Cap mod, then attach it to the Aluminum mounting plate with some thermal compound. That should work well for this system.
After the 52 minute run, temps are:
Motor = 125 degrees
ESC = 105 degrees
Batteries = 95 degrees
These Lipo's can give 100 amps continous with 150 amp Bursts. It shows in the performance too. I can tell there's alot less voltage sag under a load, especially compared to the 4000mah Lipo's.
After seeing how things went today with the different voltage levels, I prefer the 4S Lipo Best. With this motor, anything above that, it gets hard to control.
With this setup On 4S Lipo, You will find Nitro parts in it's droppings!
