My jammin scrt10 iirc is about 6.5 lbs rtr. With a 2s 5000 40c and a 550 4.5 motor after a five minute heat is about 160 degrees. The 550 6.5 on 3s 3200 40c is about 110-120 after a five minute heat. Geared for the same 38-40 mph and both with the same rpm output (within about 1000 rpm of each other). Heat is a good measure of heat losses but idk if you could literaly equate it to efficiency. As soon as I get a chance I will log some amp draw from both setups on the track and see exactly how much less current the 3s 6.5 setup uses compared to the 2s 4.5 setup.
