My boys both have the ecx ruckus. For there birthday I got them both a 8.4v NIMH battery's. The stock battery was 7.2v. After installing and driving for a few minutes both rc trucks smelt like wire melting and motors were to hot to touch. The motor is a 15T. I think I need to buy heavier 15T motors to correct over heating of bigger batteries? Also is it a good time to go brushless while doing a motor swap? Does anybody suggest a heavier 15T motor that I should check into buying? Thanks for the help
