KV ratings have very little to do with power. The only reason a low Kv motor has more torque is because you run it on higher voltages. Watts determine the power of your setup (volts * amps) and also...

While that method might keep the motor temps down the ESC temps would increase as the ESC has to bleed off the excess voltage that isn't being used.

The main problem I have is gearing, the 1800kv motor is a bit high for 6s li-po and its hard to find a small enough pinion. Where can I get an 11T Mod 1 5mm bore pinion?

How much more run time from dropping 1 pinion size?

Roughly how much longer run time do you get from dropping 1 pinion size? At the moment I am geared for about 50mph but things are getting too hot and only getting 6-7 mins.

The cooler temps on higher voltage setups is not just because you use a lower kv motor, it is more about the lower gearing.
