So you new motor falls into what I was talking about back in post #14 - Most people that buy lower KV motors also buy BIGGER motors. That new motor make something like an extra 1200w of power over the stock motor (per THIS thread). This is why the motor runs cooler, more so than the lower KV. And the extra power is because of the longer motor can, not the lower
Now I feel dense. It just dawned on me. Good grief. Lol. Yes it’s the larger motor offsetting the lower kv.
I assume that’s also why the 4092 gets my battery/esc hot. Max 6 going in soon.
Anyhow making lots more sense now, thank you Jerry!
