hope you get it under control, sounds like alot of fun though!

Im in Central QLD. Surely it can't be from running thicker diff fluid in front and rear.

Have you tried going up one tooth on the pinion to see if the motor temps come down , sounds like your undergeared .

No, i'll try that tomorrow. I was running a larger tooth before I changed all the settings (MMM settings/diff settings etc.) which was when I 1st built it.

Should solve it , your other temps are so good seems strange your motor temps went up .

Are you going to try the AKA tires out , you won't go back to any other brand .

Battery went up 10F - 15F aswell but its not longer winter which probably why it went up abit.
Here is a shot of my current MMM settings. I only recently changed the punch control from 50% to 70%.


I won a set of 4 premounted Losi Step Pin Tires (off new Losi 8ight) off ebay america for $15US. Currently using them which is better than nothing. I will try out the AKA City Blocks for sure. Haven't had to luck in Australia but most of my orders I do from Amain or Impakt anyway.
