this was going to be a PM to SweetD (the god of all things brushless and faster than lightning speed itself) but I think this might be good info for all...
I have an E-maxx (gorillamaxx) with the original Novak HV-maxx esc and a HV 4.5 motor. I'm running a bit high on the ESC temps and just want to know how to trouble shoot the temp issues.... I remember there was a thread years ago about the high temps on the motor would be caused from over or under gearing and the ESC high temps would be caused by the opposite.....am I way off in this memory? (my special "flower vase" may be a problem there. hehe)....I'm running an 18t pinion and a 66t spur.....
also I'm using the robinsons racing slipper but I seem to need to crank it down way more than I thought I should to keep it from just spinning the slipper....is there another recommended slipper for the BL setups now?
I am going to change this setup (eventually) to a mamba monster setup just for ease of the programming software where I can setup all the specific parameters I want to use...I'm not sure if that will drop the performance but I can let some of that go to make this a more reliable rig....
