Geeeze - I'm only running 2S with my LMT 1015 (6667kv) in my M18T with either a 12 or 14t pinion (not sure which right now) and it is screaming. I've been wanting to put my 3S TP 1320mAh pack in there, but I am scared.

BTW - a 8000kv motor with 4S would spin at 118,400 rpm. Castle rates them up to 80k rpm. I don't think you would even max out the speed on that without the motor literally destroying itself from the centripital forces on the internal magnets.

also - taking a closer look at those pics lutach it looks like those are 2/3A cells, not A123 - big difference.
