Haha, you are right on, it was the traxxas forums, and there are all still telling me to get the 5700 with 3s lipo, and I was and still am maybe thinking of going with the 5700, and get 1 5ah 2s lipo, and 1 5ah 3s lipo. But when I come to this forum, you guys make me want to get the 4600 and 1 3s 5ah or 6ah lipo battery and 1 7 cell IB nimh. An you guys are right im sure there are alot more people on this forum that know what there talking about and been in the hobby alot longer, including your crazy, and couple you said that you have switched from 5700 to 4600 to run with 3lipos, and you guys wouldnt switch for no reason right?. This is example of what traxxas forum people who run 5700 3s say.

(you can run the 5700 w/ a 2cell if you want and get about the same speed as the 4600 on 3cells, but for that price you can get 2 batteries or just 1 large one of a 2cell for the 5700. I run my 5700 at times w/ a pair of 6000mah 2cell's linked and I get bored way before I run out of juice You can always snag a small 4000mah 3cell for some speed passes high speed runs etc on the asphalt. I think if you gear your car right even w/ the 3cell on the 5700 you shouldn't have to worry much about heat. It's wicked fast so going down to a 12-14t pinion is fine even a 90t spur.)

( not w/ a 4600, get the 5700 hands down you can use the mamba software to control your motor all you want, but w/o a 3cell it's gunna be SLOW, slower than your Titan 12turn or at best the same speed.. why spend that much money if you don't want a little more or the possibility of a little more? A 3cell w/ the 4600 could be decent... but otherwise you can buy an aweful lot of titan 12t replacements if all you want is the performance you get w/ that.)

and another 3s 5700 user said Get the 5700.
thats why im stuck inbetween the two Im getting diffrent anserws on diffrent forums
Thanks so much guys, im going to wait for a few more response and then make the order in the next 5 hours. still dont know whitch one tho, and does anyone have an idea how fast 4600 will go on 7 cell nimh?
