Bernie I know what you ment I just hear allot of people say that if xxx motor is geared to low it will run hot. Maybe its a myth ... Also about timing , Medusa says run there motors at 8-15 for best effiency. Should we still run those on 0?
I to had heard there was a sweet spot, in which a brushless motor would run. My mambamax 4600 for example, with 20/87, the temps were 190*, but with 24/87 it runs at 160 most of the time. I think it has something to do with spinning on dirt and hitting max RPM for voltage. I think it wants to go faster, but the voltage kind of brakes it a bit, kind of like a voltage choke for a slot car. I hope you understand what i'm saying.

From the good news in jay ski V3 thread and this one, I hope to soon have a Brushless E-Revo, to kick it with my G2R


Work because i gotta, play because i wanna

People here hate Nitro, I love it. I start it, run it about 50 ft from me and it dies, I go after it. Perfect exercise
