My E-savage

[Serum]

with 12 cells, the 9L truely is the best motor. or even a 7XL, which gives a huge amount of power..

I simple love the BL savages.. ;) (got one too)

el jarretto hit the bull, that the 8L is a bit hot for the savage, though you might consider using the 2 speed transmission with that motor. What gearing are you using? With the 2 speed transmission you need a mechanical brake, which helps to keep the controller cooler as well..

my personal choice would be a 7XL with the 9920.. (you can even use it on 18 cells with the proper gearing (and the help of an external receiver pack/Ubec)
