Is using a tekin gen 2 4.5 with a tekin RS pro and team powers 5400 35C saddle pack overkill?
I'm currently running 81 spur 16 pinion and my battery is running out of juice prior to the end of a 5 minute qualifier. My ESC and attached capacitor seem to be running hot as well. I'm not sure if the batteries are bad or the motor is just too much.
I'm going to try and get a 6.5 but if the motor is not the problem then I need to find out my next step.
I'm kind of new to electric off road. I mainly run Nitro TC and have very little experience running anything electric.
Thanks
