running at 60% epa is no good either, esc's dont like running at constant part-throttle. I've blown several traxxas escs, every one of them was fine for high speed stuff with a lot of full throttle. use it on a tight track where your only around 1/2 most of the time and they melt. Something to do with how they control the power output (pwm), im not sure why it makes it heat up more.
