All you'll do is increase the current draw and start potentially causing heat issues.

The whole point behind what the guys from Castle are saying is to use common sense when gearing these trucks regardless of what the manual says. This post backs that up:

I think by pep he meant the large quantity of torque. Gearing up will put more load on the motor, and may cause it to spool up a bit slower, but it is not a good idea. Maybe adding some more punch control, or some expo to the throttle channel... I guess the CC motor is just too powerful for him
