These are the specs of the Motor ,Battery and esc
Motor : Speed Passion 3.0 1 cell 4.5R
ESC : LRP sxx competition
Battery: cant see brand but it is roar approved and 1cell 50c 3.7volt

I remember someone telling me I need to change my gearing as this was what causing my esc to over heat.
could someone recommend a gear combo for my car as I am unsure as to what I need to order.
Cheers
