Thanks for the reply.

I've heard it takes around 8cells tho for the 4200 to really wake up. I've got only 7's, & they aren't exactly new either. My info on the 4200 is that it's a "up to 600watt", 45A BL motor. Unsure of it's "size" as well.

I know the Feigao 380C-6L is 1/8" shaft, integrated heatsink, & about 4900k/v and 69A. Half the 4200's price, no doubt the 4200 is higher qual. I've been told this longer arm 380C can torque similar to the 540S's, at a higher spool up rate. The BK7018 ESC is attractive to me because of price, & I don't think I can even go over or near 70A on my batts (unless replaced).

I did weigh the Masker 2K's on Traxxas rims vs T-maxx tires/foams on RPM Stablemaxx claw rims, barely 3ozs diff per wheel added, I thought it would be more, thankfully it isn't & my brushed motor can almost manage it without much trouble.

I just like to jump & bash my Stampede, so I gear it for quick bursts to hit a ramp; topspeed isn't important as I don't use it for that, 25-30mph is plenty & with 5.75" tires I gotta gear down on Stampede's trans anyway to get the accel... so a high K/V fast spool motor I'd guess is helpful if the longer armature can make the torque.
