my friend had a revo conversion, he hwas running a feigao 9XL on only 3s and cooked it when he geared it up to get some decent speed out of it.

now i dont wanna have to gear up due to a motor with too little RPM's.
i have my rustler for uber speed so this revo has to be around 45-50mph speed wize.

heat is BAD and the last thing i wanna do is use fans (i have a CC bec but i don wanna load it up too much with all of the revo's break servo's etc)
so i wanna keep the heat down (happy to use non-fan assisted heatsinks) and the speed around 45-50mph on 4s.

i have access to a couple of 8k 3s packs so on the rare occasion i may hit the 6s but not for long.


i was gonna go with hte 2650 from castle but now i'm kinda leaning towards a 2200kv 80mm medusa, you guys either have to push me over to medusa or stop me leaning and push me to castle-neu motors.
thanks guys,
shaun
Yes, 2200 will be good for 4s. Make sure you get some good batteries though, most likely your setup will pull a lot of amps.


Get me back into RC!
