Deathvirus Powerstroke/Pro-spec Bomber

Running in grass is why you're getting higher temps... the ESC and motor are having to fight the added resistance to forward motion.

It’s the easiest place to run though! Lots of grass down here in Louisiana. Not much gravel, hard packed or loose dirt in my area

For grass you need 1/8 scale esc and motor.

Or an Arrma Kraton [emoji41]

Seems logical. Running in grass is notorious for eating motors in RC tanks.

The Kraton is most likely my next RC, if they ever get the supply chain working again...
Can't find any RTR box anywhere and there is very limited supply of replacement parts if i was to get a used truck.

What supply chain issue? I had a Typhon as well but I crashed it into a wall at full speed when I oddly lost signal at close range. I was going to try to do a drift maneuver but it didn’t happen. Anyway I got replacement parts but it wasn’t the same. I ended up putting it in the trash. I kept the Spektrum DX4C and receiver that I had used in it though because I haven’t had any issues with it in any other RC I’ved used it with.

I don't know, ever since the hobbico financial troubles and bankrupcy, all the local stores in my area are out of stock for all Arrma models and parts.
Same with Amazon.ca or most online stores.

I see now. On Tower Hobbies Arrma is back ordered.

In any case, do you have a Bomber? If so, try Proline Powerstrokes in the front and Pro-specs in the rear. It’s freakin amazing.
