  1. Bashing
Got out on Saturday to try some changes at the grass bmx track with my eJato, stampede and outcast. The ejato didn't do too well, just a lot of tire spinning. :( The stampede and outcast did pretty good. This was the first time I ever ran the stock tires on the outcast. Figured with the higher temps outside, I should try the OEM tires. They work pretty well. I did wrap them with kevlar like I do my trenchers. I didn't want to blow them off the rims.
2020/07/11: Bumped the gearing up in the stampede from a 19T to 20T

2020/07/08: ejato and stampede
Changed the motor in the stampede to a HPI Tork 2200kv. Changed the motor/esc in the eJato to a max10 sct and hobbystar 3665 3100kv. Also bumped up the pinion to a 20T from 18T.

2020/06/14: eJato and stampede. eJato had a weird hesitation issue when I'd give it throttle hard.

Cool video's. How was your temp when you bumped up to 20T?
 
I was seeing 145F on the esc and 150F on the motor, so a bit warmer than I'd prefer at the esc. Did fine at the skate park, but the grass and a lot of WOT running made it run a bit on the warm side. I was somewhat surprised at the run time. The last run at the skate park got me 25 minutes, but at the bmx, it petered out at 15 minutes!
 
I'll leave it and see how it does. If it starts to thermal the esc on me, I'll drop it back down to the 19T. I only had one pack on it. Although, I'm wondering if that's partly the reason it ate up the battery so much quicker. Eh... I leave it and see what it does.
