I've run this motor on 4s and 6s and it's stupidly powerful in a very heavy 1/8th scale Truggy, 8s would push a 5th scale pretty well if you were smart about your setup and watch temps. Main problem I see with running it on 8s is accidentally over-revving it, I'd stick to 7s max myself.

Hmmmmm, I think you are right about 7S but I want to fit this setup to a Savage flux and fit one 4S batt on both sides. Going to 7S might cause bit of a imbalance. That is the main reason why I wanted to go with 8S. Wouldn't be nice if the MMXL had a rpm limiter. You just dial into the CC Link what your motors safe rmp is and presto, can't over rev it.
Being a such a over powered rig it will be doing a lot of back flips and spending a lot of time in the air with a fair bit of throttle input for flipping and correcting during flight. This is where I see the over reving becoming an issue. I would hate to destroy one of these motors before Castle starts to make something similar again.
