what size pinion where u using?
how hot was it getting?
When I was running the 1/10 buggy tires there were no issues with heat on 3S (the Hacker 8L is 3019kv) and 16/46 gearing.

When I upgraded to the RCM extended chassis I went with 30 series prolines (4.1 inch diameter - same is 2.2" truck tires) at the same time and the load was really heavy on the vehicle. That was the same time I started puffing MA 3S 5Ah packs - with a max 72Amps - ha 20C my A.

The 1512 is almost too much fun, on 30% punch on the MM I can still literally flip the truck over backwards if grip is good. The 1509 is just a great motor and works just as well as a LMT 1930. All great choices for the ext chassis.

For a standard chassis CRT.5 a ~3000kv motor on 3S with stock wheels is a great setup too.
