How are the Rx8 & T8's holding up?

Apart from my esc karking it with a few hard/flat landings, my tekin motor has survived very well and runs pretty cool @ around 110f...

Are you guys running direct drive? Just a thought, but maybe these motors may not like the direct drive with the extra stress it may bring? I am running the tekno clutch in my rc8 (2000kv combo - previously a 2650kv buggy motor on 4S - the 2650 only got about an hour all up, if that), and am yet to come across any problems yet, with around 3 hours drive time so far...


i am sure tekin will solve this, and actually prefer the tekin setup to the MMM - it'll just take some time unfortunately...
