What are the runtime times like from 3900 to 4300 batteries? I am definiately interested in the longest, most efficient runtimes from the batteries.

I would say no LESS than the 4300 4s. I have been using them a while now, I could get close to 20 min maybe (17-18 more likely) when they were new; now with many cycles on them, I have a hard time getting 15 min if I drive too hard. I also don't like to run to the LVC, harder on the batts. I have since gone to the 4900 4s batts for the extra head room. I use a lehner 1930/8 (2613kv) or 1940/7 (2249kv) in a 7.6lb buggy (now 7.8lb with bigger batt and motor) geared 37-40mph ("ideal gearing"). Run time with either motor is nearly identical, maybe a minute less at most with the bigger motor.

HERE ARE THE BEST LINKS I FOUND WITH COMPLETE SETUPS FOR SPEED, LONG RUN TIMES, AND EFFICIENCY. OH, AND I WOULD BUY FROM THESE GUYS. CANT FIND A BETTER BUNCH.
