As far as an ESC goes - I suggest waiting on the Mamba Monster and getting a Mamba Max and doing some basic mods (fan, capacitor, CCBEC) which are all explained and are very easy to do. I know several guys with revos who run the mamba maxes without issues.

For the motor.. You'll end up with the same motor irrelevant of the ESC you choose. So I suggest buying the motor. A good motor for the E-Revo on 4s would be a 1515/1Y/F. A feigao would be an *ok* choice but honestly they run WAY too hot. Unless you live in Alaska and run on tracks and streets of snow.. you'll probably be unhappy with it. The Neu is the best choice.

Patrick of Castle Creations said their CastleNeu motors will be ready "very soon". I have no idea what that means - but if you didn't mind waiting a month or so you could probably save a few bucks and get a CastleNeu instead of a Neu. They will be offering a 1515/1Y equivalent.

edit: Oh.. and if you by chance need a Mamba Max.. I have one for sale (check my signature)
