Well, I would go with a mamba max speed control, castle creations bec (you have to disable the mamba max internal bec to run more than 3s lipo), a feigao 9xl motor, and a maxamps (or similar) 8000mah 4s lipo. This will be a cool running system that will have long runtimes and enough power to gear for 40mph or so and not get hot. You could also use the maxamps 4s 6000 battery, but I would say to go for the 8000 as it will offer longer runtimes and is made of better cells!

The rustler does ok with the velineon sytem due to the low weight and 2wd. The motor is really too small for a larger, heavier 4wd truck. You will notice that the mm/8xl combo will not be much more expensive than the velineon system. MM go for 135 or less and you can get the 8xl for about 60-70.

tmaxx im looking for around 45-50 mph for my truck with good run time i was just wondering about the power of the velineon system thats all.

lincpimp thanx for info i have a rc8 with the little 8000 mamba esc and motor and its out of control.so that will b best set up what other ideas do u have by chance?and how do u disable mm internal bec and is that safe.

To disable the internal bec just remove the red wire on the end of the harness that plugs into the receiver. You can also use a std 5cell receiver pack, but the cc bec is only 22bucks and never needs charging!

The mamba max esc is a great esc, especially the price! Combined with the clutch setup, 2 speed and mech brakes it will operate with low temps and great reliability! This is most likely the best cost per performance setup a beginner can buy, plus it works!
