Help with motor choice

[BrianG]

The one in that link is running 5s with a Neu 1515 2.5d (1700kv) motor. So, runtime will be a bit better and current will be lower than an 8XL (2084kv) running on 4s, if geared similarly.

4800mAh 25c burst is 120A, but I would look more at the continuous C rating personally. The term "burst" is sometimes loosely used and doesn't tell you how long each burst should last, nor how long the battery should rest somewhat between bursts. It's better for any lipo pack if you don't push it to its limits.
