2) I can only get barely 5 mins of racing before it cut off, i temp the motor with my infrared gun and it only read 68-75 deg C. My FDR is 9.8 (instruction says 9 to 11 fdr). Running indoor carpet med-large track. My esc timing is 15deg DDRS is 3.ESC Overheat protection and motor overheat protection is ON.

Can anyone give me a fast reply coz i have another 2 heats left tomorrow before the finals. BTW I do have another motor which is 4.5T....will using this solve my problems? I havent run the 4.5T yet but my 3.5t is keeping up with those LRP X12 4.0t motors. Can anybody also suggest me an ideal FDR for both my 3.5 and 4.5 on med to large track?
I had similar issues but with the 1.1 GT , I ended up running around a 10.25FDR in a large outdoor track with no problems, also try dropping your timing to #2 ( i think its 3.75 degrees)
