Any motor under 5.5t needs an esc with a fan to get max performance, even if the manufacturer tells you otherwise! Has anyone run a 3.5t and rs pro with a fan? The last time I saw a rs pro running a 7.5t on a 8th scale track for 5 minutes, it came off very hot, compared to my novak gtb 3.5t; and I had been running the novak for years on the same track at 9.25fdr...I would say go with a rx8 ; you might be able to run a 2.5t without any issues at all...When it comes to mod racing, you want an esc that can cook motors, not the other way around!

I ran mainly gtbs with 3.5t in my cars(tc4ft/corally f1/tamiya f103gt) against 8scale and nitro sedan, none of them thermalled, or even got hot to the touch!!! The only novak that kept thermalling after 3 minutes was the hvmaxx esc I had in another tc4 running 4s! I plan on switching to a rx8 on that one! Eventhough the rx8 is heavier than the rspro and has a higher internal resistance, it would be the only option so far, or the mamba monsters; basically anything able to do 6S !!! I saw an rx8 in an 8th scale serpent run for 10 minutes with no issues at all, 2650kv motor, stock setup( 32 timing) which is too high according to tekin reps.... As far as best 3.5t motors , its too close to call.....

The MMH motors I've been running are pretty damm fast it has to be said. The 5.5t I've been using this week has got favourable comments, both in pace (very fast), and looks (the blue anodizing matches the 417 rather well!).
I've run a 4.5t too on a much larger track, and makes my old SP v2 3.5t seem slow!

If everyone you know with thermalling problems is running the RS then that will thermal sooner as it's not designed to run 3.5 motors.

We are talking about 2s lipo in a pro10 on big 1/8 tracks, not a 1/12 (on smaller indoor tracks?)
