Default Havoc 3S with Ballistic 8.5T won't stop overheating

I've got a Havoc 3S with Ballistic 8.5T installed in a HPI Cyber 10B running off a Ptotek RC 3300mAh 3-cell 25C geared as low as I can (16/84) (it's painfully slow). After a few minutes of running, even if I run it soft, the blue and red LEDs start blinking "possible ESC thermal shutdown", the ESC and motor are barely warm when this happens. It also ran fine on a 6-cell NiMH. I have been in contact with Novak and have even sent it in and they have been no help. My LHS also has been unable to provide any solutions. I'm getting desperate, I really need some help.
