Im running the TLR 22SCT 2.0. I started using the new Exotek mid motor conversion last week in both of my short course trucks. Im using the Team Orion R10 Pro ESC and Im using the Trinity White Carbon HV shorties. Not sure what the numbers will be on the motor that got sent to me yet. So your saying to try and 81 spur and start at 30 pinion ? Thanks for the help

Thanks. I haven't added a fan. Where can you get the fans and mounting parts ?

Got a few laps on my f1 25.5 this weekend.
Tamiya f1 at 1050 weight...with 25mm fan.
I am running indoor carpet (crc gray) on a track roughly a little smaller than the snowbirds surface.
I started gearing at 43/93 and after a few laps temp was at 159F.
Started gearing down and got to 41/93 but temp was still reaching around 145. Timing is factory set (think its at 20 on bell...but will look tonight).
Is it time to pull timing out of the motor? Or should I go for another tooth on the pinion?

That's usually a pretty good starting point.
At those temps how was speed and fade?
Those temps are not unreasonable for a 6 minute run.
As for gearing, you may want to drop to a 39 or 38.
We are typically 40-96
You could also drop timing down to 15* on endbell and stay with the 39 or 38-93 and see how the speed and fade is. It is possible you may be overtimed for your track. If it comes off cool 120's and speed is down, add a pinion or two.

20 on the endbell is typically 40* total.

I let it cool and went to a lower pinion and after 4 min it was 145.
Stopped because I noticed a fade (punch).
Guess I will drop it to a 40 and knock a degree or two off timing.
Just wanted to make sure I was not dropping into the geared to low zone.
More importantly (because the motor is new to me) I don't know how heat tolerant it is before it let's the magic smoke out.
I guess that's a good question.
What is your recommendation for maximum tolerable temp. For this wind?
Thanks for the quick help.

At 1st it was only 2 min (159).

With a fan 130 to 140 range is typical.
If the track is smaller then the Birds I'd even drop another gear or go up on spur to a 96. The bigger the spur the better it will be.

What size are the motor bearings in this can?
Wanted to have some spares in stock...and I did not know if they were anything odd.
Thank.

i think my 13.5 is starting to get weak. i need to take it apart and clean it but it might be on its last stretch
