Recently switched from a tekin gen 2 6.5 to a novak ballistic 6.5 and for some reason the speedo (hobbywing v2.1) thermals whilst the motor stays really cool.

I haven't changed the pinion or anything else.

Do you think I'm under geared??

Cheers Jay

the novak is a fair bit lower kv rating. its a good possibilty.

My esc is close to thermal if my car tops out too early or if im rarely using full throttle too.
