Apart from looking cleaner there is less parts, less things go wrong. less things wear out, less money spent on maintenance. What I didn't like is the motor. Just like you guys said, it's too high of a kv and trying to take it 105mph on 3S would end in........well I don't think the ESC would last long with that kind of amp draw. Still I think the concept has merit and could work very well if right motor was used.

Yeah, use an outrunner and the highest voltage possible. I would love to have a good solid 150amp 12s capable esc, then use a very high pole count low kv outrunner to the diffs. Maybe when the mamba xl hv comes out I will have to score up another 1/8 on road chassis for testing. Or make one from a suitable buggy.
