The novak motor also looks pretty long which means it should have good torque. After seeing what the 7XL can do I really dont want to go backward in terms of speed and torque.
Also wont the Novak be more efficient than my 7XL which will mean longer runtimes?
For around 35-40mph the novak system should work fine. I would go with the 5.5 motor and stick with the gearing suggestions that novak offers. It will not be as powerful as the 7xl, but will run cooler, and you will most likely get longer runtimes. I would still go with a MMM and a neu motor, but that is more expensive than the Novak setup. The MMM/motor combo will be the best bet, but it is still a few months off....
