The MM is only good to 4s lipo, so you would want a motor around 2000kv. Feigao motors are the cheap alternative. If you want a cool running 4s setup for your buggy, go with an 8xl feigao and gear for mid 30s. That will stay cool.

I will wait for Sike to chime in and let you know what he thinks about outrunner and the MM. I am not sure if the latest firmware will allow for excellent outrunner performance, as I have not tested it myself. I know that the quark speed controls work well with the outrunners.

I remember reading in a thread "somewhere" that the newly updated firmware of the Mamba Max DOES in fact support outrunners very well. It is reported that startups are now how they should be, irregardless of the pole count.

I do intend to try this myself. I just haven't gotten around to it yet.
