Damn this thing is fast now. It was quick before, now it's fast. The mid range is much more than the Tekin motor and I'm still running it very easy.

5s with 17/50 gearing.

I think my next purchase is some 3s lipo's so I can run this motor on 6s. It should be interesting.

Video coming soon.

That stat is key to cool temps and a lot of fun!! Of course the 3.5HP and almost 8ft-lbs of torque doesn't hurt either

So what your saying is that lower RPM's keep the motor cool?

I've run that speed calculate with 6s and RPM's are 35,000. Is that to high? On 4s the RPM's are down in the 24-25,000 range and the truck feels slow.

Thanks again for the help,
Nick
