I have no issues with it in my Xray Xb4 but that doesnt have a center diff. also a good Starting pinon if someone could point me in the right direction. Thanks and cant wait to take this baby outdoors
I have pretty much the same setup. Same motor but the older R10 ESC. I use a 21T pinion. At Trackside, I turn it down the EPA to 85 and never got above 135 for temp. At Leisure Hour's indoor track (which is larger), I ran at 100% and never got above 130 (I think the longer straight allowed for more cooling. I only run a fan on the ESC and not secondary one yet. So if I see temps rise, I still have another option. I think you will be fine with your choices.
