The 7XL would be an amp hungry setup, you might have trouble finding a battery that will fit and deliver the power needed. I used a lehner basic XL 1200 motor (1200kv) and a 5s 2500 25c flightpower. I have it geared for low to mid 30's and it runs great, nothing is hotter than slightly above ambient. I run it in sand once and it got warm, but not too bad. The 7XL is a heavy motor and amp hungry, I would suggest a 1506 with a kv around 12-1500kv and go 4s or 5s lipo. I would gear for 30-35 and have fun
Work because i gotta, play because i wanna
People here hate Nitro, I love it. I start it, run it about 50 ft from me and it dies, I go after it. Perfect exercise
