Thanks for the compliments Shaun, Im having a blast driving this badboy ! been years since ive driven a vehicle with a center diff and this is my 1st electric with one. It weighs 8.4 lbs without lipos and 9.6lbs with 2x 2s,30c,5ah. Thats on a digi bathroom scale though so give or take. As for the lipos, ive only been running them down part way because they were new, they were using 2336 mah for 12 minute runs (whatever that adds up to) but I was stopping checking temps then wot so nothing accurate yet. Top speed is 43.7, im still messing with my new mx3-fhss controller (so many settings) and the esc settings, but its up from 37.6mph yesterday. Try a few more tweaks tomorrow. Cant wait to see your new buggy cruising !

these were my temps:
17/48 140º max on CC mamba, 136º max on 1515/1y, 102º max 7.4v 30c Neu 5000mah, Ambient 87 º

Do you all think the lipos are too hot ? if I gear it up 1 pinion tooth you think it will get the motor hotter and esc cooler ? or is it the other way around ?
