Ok cool, my intention is to put a 2650 in my RC8Be for speed runs on 5s Lipo (don't want to do 6s as it's a bit close to the caps rating when dealing with ripple voltage, I'd rather drop battery life a little and have more headroom for surges etc)

At the moment the car has a MMP and 2200kv motor on 4s Lipo and is great, however I don't think the MMP will handle either the 2200 or 2650kv on 5s Lipo hence the need to change ESC as well.

Obviously a 2650 in a MT on 5/6s is just asking for trouble IMO
