Would a 1506 work in a crt.5?

Are you running the normal chassis or an extended one?

When I was first running my crt.5 with regular chassis and smaller buggy size tires I had no problems with 2S and 3S on a smaller motor like a Hacker 8L.

As soon as I went to truck sized 1/10 tires I started to have heat problems - even with gearing changes. They put a heck of a lot more load on the whole drivetrain.

Also - when I went to the extended chassis I started pulling more power as well.

I found a 1509 would handle the load with minimal heat problems. Personnally I don't think a 1506 would handle the load required by the 1/10 truck tires.
