Ah.

If you hear anything right now that's probably the sound of me hitting myself with a fryingpan. I thought the shims were supposed to go on either sides of the bearings.
(Well at least I have the excuse that these things don't come with a manual..)

Cheers, I hope to get another go at it tomorrow and fix it for once and for all

What ya doing, speed runs on pavement?

FYI: The Pro4 will only get hotter quicker with more timing, that's why most of us don't run any timing on our Pro4's...
No speed runs, I run on a large 1/8 track with two long straight. I may just add an additional tooth and what I get. thanks

i haven't eaten any batteries with my SC411 4600, but i did eat one with the 4700kv hobbywing. as far as getting hot, that is nonsense. most of the people i run with run pro-4 4600's with a 14T pinion and they come off the track 170-180. i run a 14T on my SC411 and i come off 130-140. i have run as high as 16T on a large outdoor track with temps around 160. i didn't do a lot of testing with the hobbywing (i have run all three of these motors personally), so i don't really have a lot of temp data for it. after it ate a battery with a 14T pinion, i took it out of my truck.

narrow gap for gearing? wtf? where are you coming up with this stuff about tenshock motors? have you ever personally run one?
did you even bother to read my signature? Says it plain as day. Both me and my friend run tenshock motors and they eat batteries quick and i can barely make 9-10 mins. I said they get hot without a fan as my sc401 4600 on a 14t pinion got up to 210 without a fan. My temps went to 170 with a 13t pinion. Hence the narrow gap for gearing? They're good motor's, just there is better. My friend now runs a hobbywing 4700 and he says it's a huge improvement over the tenshock sc411 he had in there before.

thats right...I love my 4700 and run 13t and runs kool to touch and thought about trying a 14t just to see what speeds, driving, and heat i get out of it BUT we are now indoor and the 13t is way to much and since no control on the esc to drop power, i turned down the remote EPA for throttle for a last resort and seemed to work

Like i was saying maybe ive had luck with the Tenshock 401 motor but the hottest it ever ran was 166 it usually runs at 145 to 150 degress. Thats with no fan or heatsink with no timing.

I even ran a 30c 2s to try out on my stock SCTE and never got warm but the punch did start to go down in about 5 min .

Now im still wondering guys on here say to disable the punch control on it ? Because i think this motor needs more punch . I know on my RC8T electric with the punch control to 60% to 70% the motor runs cooler than having it at 0%.
