LST2 Brushless Conversion

But I still want a bit speed, like 50 mph or something, do you think I will get 50 mph with the 1900kv and 5s?

I am running a 1500kv motor on 6s, and with 24/59 gearing it does 42mph. The 1900kv motor on 5s will spin faster, so 50mph should be attainable. Not sure if I would go much over 45mph with the stock tires though.

Ok, so I will get the 1900kv.

I was planning to get the next kv down from the 1900kv model for my lst to use on 6s lipo. I think it is around 1550kv. The 1521 neu looks to be the best bet for these heavier trucks, although I will say that the hacker c50 11xl is quite potent. I got a good deal on it used ($120), would never buy one new though, close to $400!!!!! Neu are the best bet for a high qual motor and their service is excellent! I may still buy the 1521 and use the hacker in my hyper st...

Or if castle bring out the 1518 size 1800kv motor soon I may give that a try...
