Hi all,

I cant find this anywhere in any of the docs or online.
Does anyone know the manufacturers specification for the Speed Passion v3 5.5T / 6.5T motors temperature range?

Bought a temp gun and want to know whats the max I should be allowing before its damaging esc and motor?

Thanks y'all! :)

Aim for normal running temp of about 60-70deg c (160 deg f)

Hope this helps

What car(s) mate?

I run the 5.5 on a 21 against a 78 spur in the 4wd (2.5:1 internal ratio)
I run the 6.5 on a 23 against a 78 spur in the 4wd (2.5:1 internal ratio)

I run the 5.5 on a 21 against a 76 spur in the 2wd (2.6:1 internal ratio)
I run the 6.5 on a 23 against a 76 spur in the 2wd (2.6:1 internal ratio)

I am really quite easy on motors and can run higher gearing than many so you might want to go down 1 tooth on those and see how you get on :)
