I dont know if i posted in the corect thread but Mod, if you think this posting is incorrectly posted please move it to the appropriate thread.

here it goes,

i have a RS Pro 8.5T (not tekin 8.5T), 19T pinion, and a 5200 MAH 45C IP Lipo Batt. Settings is similar to the above via Hotwire 212 software.

my question, when i run my 410 (Just bashing) around 5-7 minutes runing, i noticed that my battery is a bit warm as compared before (when i was still using a different battery on a different car (B44). its not hot but its a bit warm, unlike when i was using my Venom 6000Mah 30C on a B44, same setup but the battery seldoms get warm. and like im running 30-45 run time.

is it me or there is something wrong with my settings. I have a fan sandwich in beetween the motor and poles, the ESC is not running hot but only the Motor (tolerance range). Im just a bit worried that my batt might end up having a short life span if i continue this.

my motor is just a HW 8.5T. Already geared down from a 21T to 19T pinion but the temp still the same. I dont have a temp gun but the temp is like holding a good old day Nicad right after ever run. And im not used to that.

Or may be i just squeze out the juice while bashing as compared to running it on track? i will try to Run the car this weekend and check.

any ideas are welcome.

thanks in advance.
