its more than likley just drag from the TLR Drive train i felt it when i swapped from my 44.2 to the 22-4 the motor would get hoter and it would pull out the bends as much
all the esc was exactly the same as i dropped them straight in the 22-4
i changed the belt settings on the car and and dropped pinions and played with esc to get a better balance
