This is what I came up with. Powered by a small 900mah 2S 15C Lipo. Just went for a test run. Without it temps were 155 or higher. With it, temps are 110-115. I'd say she works like a charm. But it's also a little cold here today, but even this summer, I'm sure it'll help keep the temps down. Now I just need something for the motor. Let me know what you think. Thanks, Joe

If your Motor is heating up then we need to look at Gearing or Voltage..

About 3 minutes into drifting the motor was around 200 and the ESC was 135. After I turned the fan on, 2 minutes later the ESC was down to 100. I believe the stock pinion is on this thing. What should I drop her down to? I just counted and it's a 28T pinion rather big is you ask me. I'm thinking drop it to a 19T? How's the sound?
