What??????

A mini-T battery powering a 1/10 truck motor and a monster truck controller doesn't make any sense at all. With that 3s 2100 battery you need a 14-16 turn 1515, which will have about 5,000 kv. Then you need a 60 amp controller to go with it. Not a 120 or 150 amp controller that will take up your entire chassis space. Btw, the setup I mentioned will be faster, acceleration will be better and you will have more runtime than the other setups mentioned.

The power does not come from the motor nor the controller. It comes from the battery and only the battery. You simply match the motor and the controller to acheive the best electrical to mechanical energy efficieny.
