Just be careful with those numbers.. That magnet can handle a bit more than 200° F, but I wouldn't say way more though; and remember the temp on the outside of the can is not the temp of the magnets. I would let that little guy get a bit of rest in-between batteries; it's a good motor, but it does have its limits.

I am curious about that setup in the new Losi SCTe. We haven't received one to test with yet, and it is a bit heavier than the other 4x4 short course trucks. With that gearing on a single battery run, what kind of temps are you seeing on the motor? And are you using the Sidewinder SCT ESC or a Max Pro? Thanks!

I am shooting for 100+ with a converted Super Nitro RS4. Currently I am running a MM on 4s with a Medusa 36/60. It is geared at 44/20. I love the Medusa but I am wondering is it time to retire it for a smaller higher Kv motor for bullet runs. The car with the battery and body is 4.69lbs. My only issue is the 1410 is smaller in diameter to the Medusa. It also seems like this should be the perfect replacement for the MM7700 in my TA-04R as it weighs a mere 3.14 lbs. I am shooting for 100+ with it also. Let me know what you all think.
