I speculating but the existing motor is really designed for 7-8S IIRC. I'd guess that it could take 10S but 12S probably means that a lower KV wind would be required.

I'm guessing that whilst the 12s controller is still in the works it will be a lower priority as the niche market stuff grabs headlines but generally doesn't make big money as the volumnes are so much lower.

The 8S combo is good for 50mph out of the box and I believe could be easily geared to 60Mph with no temp issues. Honestly how fast can/should a Baja go?

PS Based on my experience its always raining in Manchester anyway so when do you get to run it? ;)
