Still bottoming out a little but much better than with stock springs.

Also changed oil in my diffs from 7/10/3 to the recommended 5/7/2, this has not solved the nose lifting/plunging a lot on acceleration and brake...

Otherwise, can't seem to get this motor to heat, I am now up to 17t and hotest I have had after 15 minutes was 114F, esc 98F (Tekin Gen2/t8 2000KV) on 4S.
It has some speed/torque but I'll push to 19T and see how it goes from there.

Quick note, I ordered the 19T long shaft pinion from Tekno and unfortunately it does not fit, shaft hits on motor mount and can not go all the way in.

For spring reference:


Good info, thanks!
