Assuming this is the same as an MVP and Core Stock....what gives? I heard these motors simply "run hot" come on....how hot is hot? This thing just seemed like it didnt like any gearing i threw at it. If any of you peeps ever ran this motor in a tc3, lemme know how you geared it and stuff. This one baffled me lol.

Not trying to be a jerk or anything but this is a Reedy thread, not Peak.

That being said, motors can get very hot by being undergeared too. Not sure about your motor though, but do keep that in mind.
