If you want a little, use a little, need a lot, lock them up. Even with the stock traxxas radio, control is awsome. I run it a solid 20 minutes today and the motor was 120* and the esc was 109*

I did notice one thing, if you double pumped the brakes at under 5 mph(roughly), it will jump into reverse

Those are good temps, your batteries may be able to handle the load better than my 3s 4000, however mine got hot (190+) on 2s with a 5000 20c battery. Maybe I had a bad esc??!!

I noticed the reverse thing too, only when I was playing in my office, not outside at speed.

I had my VXL-3S set up without reverse. Traxxas should have made a few options on the strength of the brake. You have to be a brain surgeon to get a smooth braking action going. Try your trucks with forward/brake only and see how the braking action is and post the results here.
