That is the Align 600XL motor. Kv is 1650. The ESC is the Align 75A model. 8S1P A123s. Part of the reason for using that stuff is cost. The motor and ESC are available for 50-60 bucks each on the used market and 10 A123 cells can be pulled from a Dewalt pack from eBay for $100 or so. Some of the other parts are things I had laying around, like the Rx battery (to be replaced with a 2S Lipo.) I thought some heli stuff would work well to produce lots of power in a land vehicle, and so far it seems to work well. The ESC is an aircraft model, thus has some shortcomings, but still seems to work quite well. It does jerk a little bit from a dead stop, but once moving I can slow down to a crawl quite nicely. I never have any cogging problems.
