Why, it must be spring- nearly time to come out of hibernation...

As much as I loved my NeuCastle 1518 1800kv motor ( ran ice cold & tons of torque ), I just couldn't get enough speed out of the setup due to the lower kv rating + 1/8 scale differentials with a lower gear ratio + 5s lipo. So, I traded that motor for a NeuCastle 1515 2200kv version; the extra 400kv makes a big difference to the top speed I can achieve with my setup. Geared 28/52, on 5s lipo, I can achieve ~63mph- whether the truck will fly apart is another question, but here is a short video of a quick test I did...
