thanks little john. All I have to work off is past experience with the Rustler.

7.4v 2s1p
Sidewinder
Velineon 3500Kv
54/15 & 54/17 gearing (32 pitch).

As this was a low KV motor and could gear quite high, and never had an issue with the motor or ESC. I'm hoping to do the same with the 8ight-T. I figured out using Brian-G's speed calc that my Rustler was doing about 40mph, that's all I really want out of the 8ight-T in terms of speed, 45mph would be nice.

I was looking at the 4s1p & 5s1p 30c 5000mah Zippy packs. The higher C rating the better, cool batteries = safe batteries.

thanks again.
