Thanks for the reply.

Right now I run the Stock Spur (87) and a 24 pinion and after even 10-12 mins, it is still cool to the touch. ( I mean, around 95 deg when i temp check it )

So I would need to go down to a 23 maybe even a 22.

My concern is that it will run my battery out faster, I can run really long times with my current setup, and I don't really bash, so as long as it lasts 10-12 mins I am fine with that.

I run 2 turnigy 5000 mah 20-30c 2s lipos and 1 Flightmax 4000 mah 25c 2s Lipo.

Do I have the right C rating for a higher RPM motor?
