[quote=littlened;253193]A further update.
Why would the motor get hot like that, I know you can over work it by using the wrong pinion, but at the minute I'm using a 24t until my 16t arrives, which I thought wouldn't have been so bad. Could it be that it's overheating because it's struggling to get power.

Mate, that is very bad and probably part of your problem. I would imagine the draw of power it is using to get going with a 24t pinion would be very high and could cause your raido gear to lose power and glitch. (anyone feel free to correct me if i am wrong)
I would not use again until you get a 16t pinion and hope you have not done any permanent damage.
With regard to reciever positioning, yes it can cause problems by the motor, but for me it kept it away from power wires and the esc. Also putting it on it's side helped.
