1515 2200kv heat issues in buggy - RC-Monster Forums

I run the 1512 1800kv and MMP w/Polyquest 4500mah 45c 2s in series for 4s in a Losi 8 2.0 buggy.
I have no issues with my setup and would highly recommend the batts. Motor temps are around 150*-160* after 20 min mains. I do like using nothing but 6.5mm bullets from Castle for ESC, Motor, Batts. I like knowing there is a much less chance of resistance when using the larger bullets as they keep their shape way better than smaller bullets and offer way more of a contact patch. Couldn't hurt to try.
I also use the Thunder Power's 3200mah/40c 4s batts in parallel and highly recommend these as well.

Yeah that setup works awesome in my mbx. Ill be trying it in my MP9 to try and isolate the source of the problem. If it works well, I'll have to send in my 2200 combo again I guess.
