Temps.....mamba max and 5s...suggestions?

i ran it today and all went ok...no smoke or bad smells

xt8 with MM/fan/novak cap/holes in case, 9xl, on maxamps 2s+3s 5k pack,
geared 15/48

temps were as follows on a 38*f day

mm..90*
batterys..85*(3s) and 95*(2s)
9xl..120*
start power low
timing lowest
punch 50%


if i am thinking right i should gear up 1 or 2 tooth , but will the motor temp come down or will the esc. get hotter?

anyone running a similar set-up?

i will be getting a neu , or mmm when $ comes around

ran once more , a little diff. , but good results

changed to a 16 tooth pinion and changed punch to 30%, i only did high speed runs for 5 mins. on lower traction dusty cement

parking garage 55*
batterys both 95*
esc. inside holes..105* heatsink..85* caps..95*
motor 110*
motor connectors(3.5mm) 100*
center diff 100*

Temps don't sound bad, I would run it like that for a while and keep an eye on temps under different conditions. Is this a new MM?

like 6 months old, it had 18 fets, i think i read somewhere that the new ones have 15
