2. If this is happening at such a low gearing ratio, will I be creating problems by gearing up? This is a void issue if you're confident that the fan is triggered at a lower temperature as opposed to the ESC heating up quicker.

3. Since I'm here asking questions, what should the motor temps be? I'm at 120 degrees right now. Again, with gearing up, will I be creating issues with over-temp? This is always a trial and error thing as there are several factors coming into play. I use 22/58 gearing on 6S in my E-Revo, and the motor has the novak 5412 heatsink with two highspeed cooling fans mounted on it. Couple that with 15 degrees of advanced timing and my temps are never more than 140F.

Thanks.
