With the low throttle that you will be using most of the time, you will be heating up the esc a lot. Even if you geared way down, the motor will be spinning for nothing, and eat up your packs in a hurry. Reason 3 is the fact that 5s is taller than 4s. You want the lowest center of gravity for the best handling.

i just got done running at a huge track today running 4-5s, 4s on the tekin 2250 truggy motor is about 40 mph with the epa all the way up, speedo 140 motor 140 after 5 min quallifiers, put in a 5s and turned the epa down to 90 from 125 for 5s, after 15 mins, speedo 150, motor 150, i do not believe that turning the epa down affects the temp that much
is this agreed by my temps?
