Sidewinder 5700 gearing
I have a rustler with sidewinder 5700 and am getting top speed in the sixties but am shooting for 75
 . My current hearing is 23/83 and I'm thinking about 25/86. I did a calculator and I will get about five more mph. Will this new gearing cause the esc to overheat. Any help appreciated.Thank you |

That all depends on how hot it's currently getting, how hot it is outside and how long you're running it for..

you should also run a heatsink on the motor and ESC and maybe cut holes in the body (front and back) so there's more air flow.
