MM and 6 poles...

Yea, its still running hotter than it should be, so I am trying to keep the timing low. I guess that will help. Motor is cool, ESC is hot (170). I could drop a tooth on the pinion, but I think it will kill the top speed...it seems geared low now. Id estimate 35mph on 4s, so its nothing ridiculous.

Maybe a tad undervolted? My experience with the align xl motor was that it was ok on 5s, but was much better on 6s. I had mine in a variety of vehicles, even ran an l can in a buggy on 6s. Seemed like a good motor, but for the price the medusa 60mm long motors are better.
