I'm confident gearing down isn't going to help as I've tired that. I'd try gearing up but I have been advised to gear this motor 16/66, and I'm already running 18/66.

The timing on my ESC is at 0 degrees, would you recommend adding some? I can go up in 6 degree stages up to 18 degrees.

I've checked all the wheels and they're not overtightened to the point of binding, nor is there excessive driveline binding compared to every other MT I've fiddled with, just feels like loads compared to the trucks I'm used to (RC10T/T2/T3 series).

I'm running 12 cells, using GP3300 and brand new GP3700's. Definately comes off hotter with the 3700's.

I'm not using the heatsink clamp as I've not ordered anything from Mike yet, but if I switch to a 7XL I will likely pick one of these up.
