8XL Overheating (Mamba Max, Losi 8ight, 4S)

[xcntrk]

I’ve officially given up on my 7XL, I just can’t keep it cool enough in my heavy truck. I’ve dropped all the way down to a 13t pinion (from 20 initially) and still roast the motor with heavy bashing. (200F is where I shut it down) I’m ditching the motor and pulling the electronics for a buggy project I’m building. My truck will remain down until Mamba Monster and new motor come in.

Damn Fieago motors. What goods all that crazy power if you can’t run it for more then a few minutes at a time.
