Hey everyone. I figured i could get the best most reliable answer for my ? here. Im running a new emaxx 9xl with a small heatsink. 14 3300 gp cells. 22 pinion stock(68 spur) and mm with no external caps and no fan. and a reviever pack to run a single steering servo. Within a few min. of good bashing the motor gets up to 160. mm gets up above 200. and batts hit 160. If i keep going. after another couple a few temps on the motor(endbell) hit 200. mm is over 3 bills. and batts are over 2. I have had the mm thermal before but i didnt check the temp so i dont know what it was at. I have heard 170-180 is the max you should run the motors at. and 160 is around the max you want batts to hit. So what should i do. will dropping a tooth on the the pinion gonna help that much? should i get a fan for the mm. or will one of those novak caps work. I also read a thread that running 4 smaller caps is better. any ideas? I already turned the timing to min. but that didnt seem to help at all. It didnt seem to hurt performance either. Im realy happy with the set up. It downright rips, But i dont want to fry the mm, smoke the batteries at throw a magnent all at the same time.
I can run 12 cells but that takes some of the fun away.
how much room do i have before the esc thermals? and any idea to help on everything else. And dont tell me to drive slower im not looking for mpg on my car :P
