What bl motor to use with 3s lipos

[crazyjr]

I am at my sisters this weekend and thought i'd run my T4 3s setup on the dirt road in front of her house, I figured the dirt would let me get to top speed easier with wheelspin (as opposed to blacktop traction). Well same story, even at 7/8 throttle, when i pull full throttle, the front jumps up and the back becomes a dirt scoop. So i need a few ounces in front for top speed runs

I have had bad luck running higher kv motors, too much heat and damage.

Running high kv motors can work provided that the right voltage is used to keep them from over-revving and proper gearing is used to help reduce the motor load a little.

Unfortunately, most people who want high speeds automatically assume they need a high kv motor. Then, they use too much voltage and gear too high creating issues.
