We run it based off of the original respects and we have not made any changes after hearing that it is truly a 6V motor. Why take a big power hit? It is in the drivetrain for extra power, and we plan to get all we can from it. We haven't pushed it hard in a competitive match but in hours of continuous testing and practicing it has not gotten even the slightest bit warm, even without the fan. We don't have the space to "let 'er rip" but so far I am impressed.
