i'm running 3s with a 19t pinion and still getting good motor temps (sidewinder sct esc gets hot though) and after adding the motor fan to the esc, no heat issues at all. the tires don't make it to full speed though without needing to be reglued and having small tears fixed.

btw, a quick fix for torn sidewalls:
use a curved sewing needle with very fine fishing line and coat it with some CA glue when finished "sewing" the tear. the finer the line, the better, because it isn't exactly purdy, especially with thicker line.


They say a good mechanic only needs 2 tools - WD40 & Duct tape. If it moves, and its not supposed to, duct tape. If it doesn't move, and its supposed to, WD40.
