I can see where they would not be good for a race and thats probably why everyone is against them. I'd still throw the 7XL against any nitro and come out ahead any day of the week.

Yeah, when I had my converted Revo, a Feigao worked well for me too since I was using 14XGP3300 cells and got around 14-15 minutes of runtime. Just enough to have fun before the cells dumped and gave it enough of a break for proper cool down.

LOL, ya know, it
does get hot and humid here in the summer too. 90-100*F days are not uncommon in the summer. Even then I never used a fan. Truthfully, if you need a fan, just get a bigger motor with a similar kv. Power drain will be the same but the added surface area helps a lot.
