@JohnHDK The ESC was fine, as were the batteries. The motor did get quite hot though, even with all the aluminium surrounding it.
I just finished driving it over very rough sandy terrain on a building site, but I didn't get a chance to make a video of that, I needed both hands too much for that place. The motor was a lot cooler then, but still pretty hot on the touch. So far no real damage, one m4 bolt of the bottom of the front bumper snapped as I slammed the car into a piece of steel plate.
Concrats with the new car, i'm thinking of buying one myself.
Did you measure the temp on the esc and motor after running with it, i'm worried that it would get too warm, specially when running in grass.
I like the build of the car, but i have only seen the pictures of it for now :-)
