Should I gear down or get a heat sink?
I run on a pretty long track, I have a 56T spur from my nitro RC8 but according to the speed calculator I don't think it would be fast enough for my track with the 56T.
Anybody running a 56T spur?
you should be using pinion sizes around 17-18-19. I would start with 18.
Stick with the 46 spur.
