What are everyones opinion on a good motor for 4s?

7xl or 8xl?

Neu 1512 2.5d/f or Neu 1515 1y/F

1940 7/8?

Has any one run the 1512 in a buggy/truggy before? If so, how did it do? I really like the Neu 1512 2.5, light and powerful. How would it compare to an xl motor?

Thanks again:018:

Well, in your first post, I would do option one. And an 8xl will give you better run time on 4s than a 7xl. The 9xl would do fine, just gear it up. 9xl is better on 5s though for more speed. the 989 can do two packs at once in series. This would be your best route. More money yes, but your frustration would soon end in all. Plus you would still have your Ice if needed to charge individual packs. Also, I would say a 10K would take more than 1.5 hours! more like 1 / 45min to 2. Like CHC said, the charge will slow as you get closer to the max voltage. With a 10k, that would be a lot.
the Neu would do great, but you need a controller that can do the 4 pole. Although, not sure how it would do on 4s???

I already have a quark 125, so running a 4 pole is not a problem...

I have $540 right now, but my parents are making me put $300 in the bank:031: I think my ideal setup right now would be the neu 1512/2.5d on 4s 8k lipos...
