one of my friends is going to get a 3.3 maxx and i have my e revo and i want to make shure mine is faster lol, so could i use a 7xl with 14 or 15 cells on a mm with a reciver pack? can i get links to a good fan that will keep my electronics under a good temp that wont ruin anything? and i will ony run one pack at a time never packs after pack? or is what i want not realistic? if not what motor, cell count, and the mamba maxx because i have one, will give me in the 40 to 47 mph range so its colse or i win:D :018:

It all depends on your gearing. Check brians speed calculator out for speed,gear and motor combos (sticky at the top of this forum).

If you keep wheels down. You will dog a nitro off the line. He will have to play catch up.

16 good cells on a 7XL is rapid. That T-Maxx will be served on a plate to you. :)

im using a mamba maxx i cant do more than 15 cells, witch will be elite 4500, there chart says there better than ib so im going to give them a try

Buy a UBEC in the rcmonster store. That will let you run more cells.

You really should be using a UBEC for anything more than 6-7 cells for best performance. I know that you can run more cells with the built-in BEC, but why heat up the ESC more than you have to?

Some do not need them. a friend of mine ran a maxx with a bk 9920 and feigao 8l and temps were fine.

I ran my racebomb decked out with everthing supermaxx, on a 7xl with 14 cells . I was keeping up with 1/8 buggys & truggys & betting alot of them. I tried it on 16 cells & it was super sick fast , to fast to control.

Some of that depends on the current draw of the BEC. If you only pull 500mA, then a linear BEC is fine. But if you have a high torque servos (and do a lot of turning), fans, etc, then things heat up quick.
