I am running a 1520 on 6s in my muggy, currently Im running 20mm hexes with losi super bolt on tires. I keep hearing that on a low KV motor I should be running a higher tooth pinion. I am running 14t pinion on a 48t spur. Should I bump up the pinion a tooth or two? I dont want to overdraw current form the batteries and make things hot. But I also dont want to put too much load on the batteries and burn up the esc. Batteries are turnigy 4000mah 6s 30-40c rating (no worries I have some 35c batteries on the way)
