Checking the temp on the motor once the ESC shutoff, the motor was only at 170F, that's why I was wondering if it was the batteries or something with the ESC.

But I will try to go down two teeth on the pinion and double check the mesh. As well as check the drivetrain and fluids. Was going to put some higher weight diff. fluid in anyways.

P.S. The fan is indeed running.
