No, as you could use that argument in my case to say that my 4300mah NIMHs were holding it back. The 3200 LIPO offered as much as if not more punch/power than my NIMHs. The 4800s I have are just in a different league.

I'm getting a slower motor not because the batteries are overstrained but because I can't control it!
I wonder whether these guys you know who are getting their cells that hot are either charging them correctly, discharging them too low or could it even be gearing issues?
