i think somethings off in your buggy.

Is your drive line free? bearings good? motor good?

and you gotta remember the mamba max is a 1/10 scale ESC. Although you can make it work....it requires some close attention

are you running a fan on the heatsink? on the mm it is needed, just a small 25mm 12v fan is the best, hook it right up on the power leads, also drilling holes in the bottom case helps alot to

lol, you're right. Generally I would never recommend a fan, but then again, I wouldn't recommend a MM for a buggy either. But since he has the MM, the only way I can think of to drastically reduce heat would be to use a fan.

ok for the esc but the motor ? :neutral:

bad motor for my application I suppose ? :) or I know the windings of the motor was some damaged where the motor screws goes ...
