If you can run something similar to 5s lipo, I would say that an align 600xl would be your best bet. You may get away with the l model on 6s and gear down but the xl is not much longer and will handle the load better.

I have been meaning to run the l version I have in a buggy but have not got around to that yet. I tested both the l and xl in my emaxx and they worked fine, much more torque than an inrunner but not as fast to spool up. Ended up feeling smoother to drive.

On a side note the quark escs work these kinds of motors well, not sure about other escs though...

Do you still have these motors that you tested? Been curious about these for awhile now.

I wonder how they would do in the new E maxx with the mod 1 gears?

The Align motors are strong. When I get my ESC done, I'll put the 600 back in the truck to give it a work out.

I sold the align xl, but kept the l can. They have a rather large diameter, like 43 mm or so. I like the motors, but they do not seem any better than a l can feigao in my 2wd maxx. I need to try out the l can align in an 1/8 buggy, just to see how it does with more load. If quark send me a new 125b, I will outfit the mbx with the l can and a pair of 4200 lipos for 6s. The mbx has a solid center spur now, and should be quite a performer, on the street that is!
