Hi rckcrwlr,

I was running a 7XL with BK warrior 9920 & 5 or 6S lipo with 2 speed / mechanical brake & 15/49 gearing in stable condition before I got distracted. This is for bashing condition only though. Theoretical speed with this setup using 5S is around low 40's mph. She'll get there faster than the nitros though.

If I have enough money, I will go for 8XL with 6S using the same controller for a cooler running esc.

I also ran the same truck using 16/49 gearing with a Quark 125 & everything else the same on a track but ran into thermal ussues after a couple of laps.

Now I'm back to 5S, warrior 9920, 15/49 gearing & mech. brake. Will try this out soon on the track where the stress on the truck is much higher compared to bashing conditions. Hopefully, it will be ok.

Oh, by the way I live in the tropics where thermal issues are much more pronounced.

Regads,
Joe Ling

PS : are u the same person from clodtalk ?
