Tweedle Dum · 09:34 PM

I checked with my temp gun just this afternoon. I ran around then did a few runs back and forth along the street. I checked temps 1st shot around and I had ~80-90F. I finally got the 3rd gear all set up to where I am happy and after 4 or 5 full runs after all that, I came back and measured both the controller and motor at 98F and 100F respectively. Is this too cold? I didn't seem like it. I'm just used to my 290F Nitro engines.The perfermance met my expectation though. No glitching, or noticable loss of performance that I can see, but I can't consider my evaluation more than just that, inexperienced but happy. I'm not a hardcore racer by any means, just enjoy the hobby, so had lots of fun trying to keep the wheels down. Other than that, thanks again coolhand, that info helped get me up and going faster than I had expected.
