Not sure where you got that weight from... The longer TVP's are only 1.5lbs more than the stockers. Where do you see another 2 1/2lbs coming from in that kit? The TVP's are the only significant item in the kit to contribute to increased weight.

I agree with you Chris. Even with an increased weight of a couple of pounds, the 2200kv is more than capable, especially if you're running 6S and gear for sub 40mph speeds.


Bondo: Also keep in mind that anything other than a 15xx Castle/Neu motor can is going to need a different mount because of the can diameter.
