Has anybody successfully used the Genius 95 in sensored mode with Novak's motors? Does it come with an adapter cable to use the Novak/LRP/Orion style sensor harness? Is that a separate piece? Is there a place that sells these and ships to the US?

Hi, I Just started running my Genius 95 last meeting and it ran really hot all meet (Over 90 degrees C). Just wanted to know what i could do to help it run cooler? I was running a Novak 3.5 at about 10.0 and I also tried running 10.8 but the temps didn't change.
Thanks, Drew.

Also, less actual braking (or smoother throttle control) and less drag brake on esc setting will allow for less heat build up in the esc. Common with all B/L esc as they do all the switching and bear the brunt of the workload - so instead of frying and cooking traditional brushed motors (brushes and comms burnt) your B/L esc thermals or gets very hot.

Hope this helps you Drew and Tom.

Hey Leonard, I ran three caps from the start and tried running a 30mm fan but the temps were still around the high 80's. I was running about 60% brake and no drag brake. The only thing i haven't properly played with is the amplimiter and the turbo mode just wanted to know whether playing with these would significantly reduce the temps.
Thanks, Drew.
