Neu motor rpm speed question for BrianG

Personally, anyone stupid enough to insert their genitalia into a jet drive is doing the world a favor by ending that thin branch of the family tree.

Thin branch....nice one

Only a one time sample but my 1515 1y ran (about 20 mins on grass) cooler on 6s than it ever did on 4s or 5s with the plus of the added speed.

Without gearing down for equal speed, I'm surprised it didn't get hotter actually. If you can, try the test on 6s vs 4s again, but gear down for the same speed. Note temps and smoothness.

I was thinking about this and you may be right. The field I was running on had a lot of irregularities so I was wot only for short burst since I was geared for about 50mph on 6s. On 4s it was mid 30's so I could wot almost the entire time. Probably explains why it was cooler on 6s. I will try what you said however to verify. Incidentally, the last two times out on 6s I blew the front center shaft on my e-maxx. Never had any issues before on 5s or 4s.
