Hows that rule go???

always wanted to ask this but felt ridiculous

to gear down does that mean lower the ratio?

my pedes ratio is aprox 4.5 right now and the esc is hella hot motor is warm.

if i were to need to gear up does that mean raise my ratio to lets so 5.0? and gear down would be to lower the ratio to 4.0?

thanks

EDIT- the thing about the freezer confused me till i read it slow. what hes saying is get the rotor out and put it up against your fridge to see how magnetized it is. if i sticks up to the fridge and holds on well then it should be still good. thats what i got from it at least.
