If you're seeing more than normal of the carbon dust, then you're having too much resistance in your system. The carbon dust is caused by amps resistance, and too much amps will cause more burning which cause more carbon dust. Make sure your bevel gear is shimmed correctly to the pinion gear, as most people shim that gear incorrectly. Then check your battery and connectors. Best way to check for electrical resistance is to pull out the gearbox and install the pistol grip and motor. Plug in the battery and shoot in full auto. Feel around the wires and see what is getting hot. Then you'll have an idea on what could be the cause. The MOSFET could also be the caused too.
