I do have telemetry with the futaba 3PV I think they make a sensor for it.A motor heatsink/fan will help lower the temps. The best thing you can do is buy a temp gun and randomly check the temp on your rig.
Haha yea casualty of war! I did strip out just about every screw. Had to dremel off the old pinion because of the grub screw/ set screw stripped. Took me about an hour. The shaft did get a tiny bit damaged but still fine. I was just doing speed runs this morning and this thing is probably hitting 60-70 mph with no problems. When I first installed the pinion I messed it up bad. It worked for about 2 minutes. The set screw wasn't tight enough and the shaft was spinning but not the pinion. And the noise sounded terrible. I fixed up that issue last night once I got to the work bench. Got the set screw nice and tight. And for the meshing I put a piece of paper in between the center diff and pinion. I made sure the paper was able to move back and forth between the gears. Tighten it down and Viola! meshing was perfect. I'm running a Venom 6s 5000mAH 22.2 volt 50c. Thing is going fast as hell. Love it!I think the Yeah Racing heatsink fits but don't quote me on that.
And omg what happened to your motor mount? It looks like you stripped every single screw and had to dremel them out.
I'm thinking about getting that telemetry engine temp sensor today. But the stupid thing is like 50 bucks for a crappy little piece of electronics. Looks like you just tape the sensor to the motor then my remote LCD will show me the engine temp. What is too hot for these engines? Fahrenheit though please I'm not in Europe. And if you do hit a hotter temp what do you do? Just stop running and let it cool down? Or use an upside down can of compressed air to lower the temp immediately?I run 5200mah packs through my senton with a 19t pinion and only have heat troubles on the hottest (100f) days... you’ll be fine with that 16t... temp gun is useful though yes
Just buy a temp gun for $15 shipped on eBay ... I didnt even know these had telemetry stock.Haha yea casualty of war! I did strip out just about every screw.

A lot of people like the max6 and leopard/hobbystar 4092 setup, or a mm2 and 4092 setupI have a similar question for my Notorious but I would like to know, rather, if there is an ESC/motor combo that could achieve the same goal, not overheating, off-road, with the optional pinion. (I don't mean to hijack but I don't want make a dupe thread either, not sure, let me know)
No problemoAwesome! Thanks Peeeenuuutt!
