Shouldn't really get warm either.
Thanks bud glad to hear that! For example today, I ran a whole 2s pack through. Temps were: ESC: 78, lipo: 108, motor: 138. Then I ran my 3s pack and temps were: ESC: 85, lipo: 98, Motor: 168.

I was keeping an eye on my temps the whole time. Disabling the punch did help some it seemed. I will now gear up to 19/56 and see. Once I get my 54t I will try that with the 19 and 21t pinion.

Thank you all for the advice. Have a nice weekend!
