feigao motors and different escs in buggies

[DwightSchrute]

update:

i burned my first vxl-3S, but it was all my fault. i had it grossly over-geared for the track . i ended up torching it during some practice.

it had been so long since i ran one, i forgot what the fast blinking light meant...thermal.
i just kept thinking it was going into lvc and kept re-setting it. after re-setting it for the 4th time, it let out smoke.

so i consulted with asheck, and he squared me away. i needed to gear down, use some caps and maybe run a bec.

great advise.

all i really had to do was gear down. i went from 45/16 to 48/12 and i can't thermal it at all. i had the lvc off too, and ran my pack too low (ie:2.52 per cell) before the esc even got to 130 degrees.

i'm not sure if the pack will recover, but the esc kicks ass.

thanks to Asheck. i was ready to throw in the towel on the vxl-3S...now i'm glad i hung on to the spares i had.
