Lower number equals lower wind. Lower wind means faster motor. Look at the kv number which is rpm per volt. You want to run your motor at a max of 35k rpms. This helps keep the heat down. Multiply the voltage battery you wish to use by the kv to get a motor rpm figure and try to stay below 35k rpm. Such as 14.8v x 2200kv = 32500 rpm = good. And then gear your truck to the speed you will want to run at. I gear all of my stuff to around 40mph cause it suits my drving style and area I play in.
I am looking new motor too, but I dont know what I take.. Is Lehner 22XX good motors ? I am looking good speed and torgue for my revo, I use 10 000mAh maxamps 7.4v LiPos (14.8v) . Some peoples says Neu 1515 1y, but its out of stock and I need my motor soon.

I have a 1950/7 turn I may part with. I am also in Southern Utah (Washington) so you won't have to pay shipping! Or if you just want to bash, let me know.
Ive read about people with this 22?? on 4-8s hitting 60 np. Just search lehner 2230, 2240, and 2250. O and there the same price as a 1950. But I dont know how well the revo will handle at those speeds.
