Whats the test to see if my 9xl is going bad?
If the motor is hot, gear down. I don't remember about the ESC.

if you don't mind popping the rotor out and sticking it to your fridge, then that's a good test. If it isn't a crazy strong magnetic attraction it has probably been too hot and lost magnetism.

Also increased cogging in a previously smooth running setup is a good tipoff of lost magnetism.
