for real though guys, any ideas on the cogging at startup? this is a pretty beefy motor i was expecting this buggy to fall apart under its power but it is having trouble off the line no matter how i set the esc. once its rolling it does great, this is why im thinking the 100 amps or so the batteries are rated for are the culprit. it does have the latest 1.29 firmware but so does my rc8 and it works great with it. anyone know what a good final ratio is for this motor?

after dinkin with it some more its acting like it is overgeared for the masher tires he wants to run. will pick up another pinion tomorrow at the track, then test it some more...... LOTS of testing.... will get a vid of this thing doin some landscaping in the desert as soon as i can.
