Yep, I agree 100%. I'm betting a lot of these setups are going to drop into the new 16.8v Emaxx. What's 16.8 * 2200?

Well golly gee, it's 36960 RPM.

I think that was most likely the reason for the motor choice with the package. I would say that more than likely the majority of MMM owners won't start off with a 5S LiPo pack. They probably won't spend $300 on a MMM and then $200 on a pack for it. That's more than the cost of the truck right there. But a 2200 will work well with a 14S NiMH setup, and be insane on LiPo when they do make the plunge...kinda like how the MM is now.

I'm pretty sure they'll introduce lower KV motors later. I know they came out with the 6900Kv after the MM launched. It's certainly possible for the MMM.
