The awesome thing was that the setup I ran was getting great runtime.

I could have geared up a tooth to get a little more top end and may hurt the runtimes a bit. But here's what I got:

first run 1350mah
second run 1225mah
third run was around 1300ish... didn't write it down.... hectic day. :019:

So I was using about 180mah per minute on average based on a 7 or 7.5 minute run. Last time it was using 1400-1600mah per run with the 1515.

I'm surprised to see the efficiency improve. Gearing was just barely lower (when adjusted for kv change... the 16/46 @1700kv would equal 14.25/46 @1900kv... I ran 14/46) The esc settings may have something to do with the improvement.

ALSO, the temps were even lower than before also... I only checked it once, after the last qualifier and I was surprised:
Motor: 97*F
ESC: 115*F

Track temps were probably in the 50's I would guess... no fan on motor/esc.
