I guess that means I now have two esc's with that same reverse problem (vxl and mgm). guess its a good thing I lock out reverse. so far I am happy with the vxl. mine has been running at 115-120 esc and 130 for the motor. I have it in a mf2 with a 2s trakpower.

The only things I dont like are the size and no drag brake.

am i reading this right, you are running 3s in a truggy? i think that may be causing the heat

I forgot to mention my truck only weighs about 7 pounds. I ran the M.troniks and the MM before getting the VXL-3S and they ran fine. I thought the VXL-3S would do well since it is rated at 200A continuous and 320A peak. My guess it was only made to work with the light Traxxas vehicles. I drove my friend's Rustler and it was really smooth. Do you guys think the MOD1 gears might have something to do with this? Here in NJ is a bit cloudy, but I'll see if I can get some run time with the MM.
