btw, i dont really understand all the details of of gearing and watts and on and on. you seem to know all that very well. here is what i am running. was wondering if you could tell me if you think the hobby wing will work
2215 2y 750kv
10s 5000mah 30c
and 15/40 gearing
i know the gearing is high. i can go a bit lower down to a 12t pinion for a 12/40 setup if needed. is that gonna be geared low enough? what would my gear ratio be? remember i dont have the drive reduction unit like you. just a spur and pinion gear and of course the stock front and rear diffs which are 30t spur and 10t pinion.

roughly 7.5 final drive ratio has been the most I've been able to push/try on the 100A ESC without any issues.. but my KV is set for 356, and your's is 750KV.. but your tires are smaller diameter... and your vehicle is quite lighter in mass... your's is about 9.99:1 final drive ratio if you use a 12T pinion... I think yours is setup same as Kaz..? With the buggy tires and the high FDR and higher KV motor/rpm, I think the 100A ESC would handle fine...
I bought the 28025 temporary for my 1/5th scale race a few months ago, but it didn't work.. it was pretty much a waste of money since that's the only ESC that would've been able to handle the 2280-5 on 6S 10000 mAh, 5th scale.., and it still doesn't work, I'm sure Mike would help me out.. Just waiting for a reply.. I'm in the same boat as you, I really don't want to send it out, unless I'm 200% sure that there is nothing else that could be done for it to work.... because my Hydra 240 on 6S couldn't handle that motor either, but that's because it needed water cooling and the motor RPM was 1480KV...
The Hydra was 75+ Deg. C, the Lipos were about 50 Deg. C 6S2P 10000 mAh, and the motor was about 40 Deg. C. and all 6 10 AWG wires were warm...
