I guess I got used to it with the revo that I ran with the 2 speed, and the savage too. With the savage I set 2nd gear to engage quickly, must have been at 10mph or so. This helped the air hv esc I had start easily, but it shifted before I had much speed. This seemed to help alot. I remember the revo would do a back flip when it shifted if I did not anticipate the shift and back off slightly as it shifted... I have a feeling my 1/7 scale will be a handful... Going to run a 1521 1y on 6s2p 4500 30c cells (thats right, 9000mah and 270amps cont), geared 25/42 in second for starters, then move up to a 30t pinion...
The 25/42 gearing should do about 80, and if I step up to the 30t pinion I may best 100mph. Not sure if the 1521 and a MMM will do that though...
On a slightly related topic, what rcm motor mount do we think will fit the LS? Maybe the lightning buggy mount?
