I'll double check the bevel - pinion shimming. Since I didn't have this issue with the original motor, is it possible that the pinion gear isn't meshing well with the bevel gear due to it's shape? I'm running Modify gears, which meshed perfectly with TM, CA and Modify pinions, but the Lonex pinion seems to have teeth that are a bit thicker and that part seems to wear to become thinner quite quickly.

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.
