Any ideas on what I need to do. Obviously one is get a new motor lol. What do ya'll recommend. I am usning 5000mah 40c Lipo's
My buddy has been running this same combo for months. He uses a 13t pinion and runs a fan on the motor. I dont think running the battery to the end would be a good idea. Check temps every 5 min. or so.
P.S. This is a fast combo, on the track he has the throttle end point turned down.
