covert Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Been a while since ive run my losi's , before i dust them off and take them for a run whats the max safe temp on the motors ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tug Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Motor as in leccy? 60C is comfortable, 70C is on the warm side, 80C is when damage starts to occur. Opinions will vary, but that's a good rule of thumb for you. If you can keep them below 60C, all the better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dazp1976 Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 (edited) I kept mine 70c and under. I couldn't do below 60 unless I geared down 3 teeth which was pretty slow ( I only have grass areas which don't help) Had no problems. I tried one of these out recently from yeah racing just to see and temps dropped considerably with the same gearing so it's now permanent Edited February 3, 2016 by dazp1976 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try to mesh the fans, it'll keep the crap out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
