Nope, this was unloaded on an 8.5 motor. I hadn't even put the pinion back on yet.
I did get a little better result by flipping the battery strap over and taking some of the pressure off the pack. But that concerns me as it will take a beating in off-road. If squeezing it in a normal battery tray causes it to cut off, what happens on the landing of bigger jumps, etc...
We'll have to see. Saturday I'll take it racing and see how it does.
