You may want to ask briang, he is using a mm 4600 on his crt.5, but he runs 3s. I am not very impressed with the mm motors. I have tested most everything including the vxl system from traxxas against my mm esc and feigao 12s (3000kv). I have not found a better sytem yet, for 3s lipo that is. I found the mm motors to heat up very quickly, but my gearing was higher than yours so there was more load on the motor. I would give the mm 5700 setup a try and if you do not like it sell the motor and buy a feigai L can, or some other type of motor. It is best to experiment to find the best combo you like, I can only give my experience, which is limited to 3s and higher. I have maybe ran 3 systems on 2s and was dissatisfied with the performance. I even run a twin traxxas titan 12t motor wild dagger on 3s lipo! Those brushed motors can handle some voltage!
