So I installed a Max5 HV G2, 250amp ESC and 800kv 56118 sensored system. It is absolutely so amazing I have ordered another for a different build. You can gear it to your hearts content and it never heats up lol.

One issue it has presented, It wears MOD1 gearing out after 3 or 4 hard runs being it has so much torque. Solution.............

BEEFY GEARING!! 35t Spur MOD1.5 and 25t Pinion MOD1.5

I have ran two battery packs so far and the gears are still black and look brand new!!!! FIXED!!!! YaY!!!

I don't know much about gearing, but I think it sounds like you know what to do.
