Tested same gearing on 6s and temps were about 10F cooler, but motor was till up around 130F. Amps were also up around 116A. Will try 8s and higher gearing, have a feeling the motor is under geared and wants to be about 18-20t. that will put speeds up between 58-65mph. if i get bad results i will run it on 6s and gear up for speed according to temps and amp data. I dont think testing on grass is giving it any help either especailly with the caliber tyres. I may have to get a set of tires that will bite into the grass better to stop the wheel spin, or try some testing on concrete
