That Redcat stock combo is not bad at all. Especially if you have the new 120amp ESC not the older 80amp one.

This might very well be an ESC issue.

Swap out the ESC with the Redcat one (if it is the 120amp) and run the new motor on 4s and see if you have a problem.

Probably fastest thing to try to eliminate ESC problem, or point to an ESC problem.

Later,

I ran it on 4s and it was still pretty sweet, I had the Hobbywing combo and figured wth and slapped it on there.
