I'm playing around with a Rustler Setup now.

It has:
Mamba Max Pro
Flightpower 30C 3200mah 4S
Axi 2826/10 920kv with fan, geared 14/38 using Mod 1 Gears.

It's rolling on a set of Slash Tires using 14mm hub adapters.

I ran it once today on 4S and it did great. Super cool temps. Tomorrow, out with the flightpower Pack and in with a Turnigy 5S 30C 3000mah pack.

Tranny is a XL-5 upgraded with the steel input gear and the Delrin Idler Gear. I'm sure it's not gonna last long and will be upgraded to the VXL Tranny when it goes.

Top Speed with the 5S is about 35mph. This combined with the smaller tires is what makes this setup work. Stock Drive Shafts are being used.

Smaller Tires take the place of a loose slipper and not put so much stress on the drive train.

I'm gonna play around with this for a few days, then install a Medusa 36-60-1500kv motor and gear up. That's probably when my tranny is gonna go bye bye. LOL
