I have the Novak Super Sport Plus kit that came with their 5800 motor,
and run it in my stampede with 87/23 gearing. I run it with 6 cell
3800mAh Intellect packs, and it never cogs or hesitates. I'm not sure
if the problem is my gearing, or something else.
It seems like after about 5-6 mintures of running it goes into thermal
overload mode and cuts off power for like half a minute. The ESC's
heatsink is hot, and the heatsink i put on the motor is kinda hot.
What I don't get is that if it's my gearing, I'm kinda dissappointed
because gearing it lower rudeces my top speed significantly, and even
with the gearing I run right now, the torque will flip the stampede
over easily with my masher 2000's.
Does anyone have the SS+ and run the 5800 motor, and know if I just
have a bad model, or do I need to re-gear it?
Thanks,
