Nice buggy John. Do you have any airflow through your body? I used a toilet paper core to make a duct from the windshield to my motor and it did help, dont know if it was any better than just a hole though;)

That is actually a really good idea. A duct like that could really flow, especially at speed. I may give this a try, sounds good for esc cooling. Maybe make a duct tube that runs front to back, and cut out a portion so that the esc heatsink can sit in the airflow.

I just re checked the settings and found that I was running the old SW.. v.09 and now its updated to v.17 I think I will leave things set the way they are for now and see if that helped.

Rev... off....

braking at 50%
Punch control 50%
Timming normal
LVC 12.4

Also I was not running a body for the road test / shakedown.
