My Revo 3.3 Brushless Conversion

[magman]

I am not familiar w/those motors so I would try to keep temps around 150 if you can. Try going down 1 tooth. Here is a good guide to follow.

Another suggestion is to upgrade to a cc/neu motor. Probably a lot better quality than what you have now. The better motors are well worth the money if you are racing...they generally will run cooler and last much longer, provided the set up is correct.


Hot, warm, and cool vary as well, so here's another general rule:
Hot for a motor = generally over 160F (71C)
Hot for a controller = generally over 150F (66C)(or "thermal" range for the controller)
Hot for batteries = generally over 150F (66C) for nimh, 130F (54C) for lipo
Warm for a motor = generally 100F (38C) through 150F (66C)
Warm for a controller = generally 100F (38C) through 130F (54C)
Warm for batteries = generally 100F (38C) through 130F (54C) for nimh, ambient temp through 120F (49C) for lipo
Cool for all components = generally ambient temp and up to 10 degrees F (5.6C) more
